Troubleshooting

Screwdriver tip slips out of the screw head

Ensure the 5.5mm tip width is the correct size for the screw slot. Clean both the screw slot and the screwdriver tip to remove any debris that may be hindering a secure fit. Apply firm, consistent downward pressure while turning.

Handle feels uncomfortable during extended use

Ensure you are using the correct grip technique. The soft grip is designed for comfort, but adjusting your hand position or taking short breaks can further alleviate fatigue.

Screwdriver shows signs of rust

Wipe the tool clean with a dry cloth. For minor rust spots, a light abrasive pad or fine steel wool can be used cautiously, followed by drying and a light coating of oil. Store in a dry environment.
