OPERATION
Driving operation
NOTICE:
Always check the driver bit carefully
for wear before driving operations.
Replace a worn
driver bit or poor fastening may result.
NOTICE:
Always hold the tool squarely against
the driving surface.
Holding it at an angle may dam
-
age the screw heads and cause wear on the driver
bit. This may also lead to poor fastening.
NOTICE:
Always keep the tool firmly against the
driving surface until the driving is over.
Failure to
do so may cause insufficient fastening of screws.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to drive a screw onto
another screw already fastened.
