FAQs

Is this screwdriver safe for all electrical work?

This screwdriver is rated for safe use on live equipment up to 1,000 Volts. It is not suitable for voltages above this rating or for non-electrical tasks where insulation is not needed.

How do I know if the 10.0mm slot is the correct size for my screw?

Visually compare the width of the screwdriver tip to the slot in the screw. For optimal fit, the tip should fill most of the slot without being too wide to fit or too narrow to engage properly.

What does 'individually tested' mean?

It means each individual screwdriver has undergone specific electrical testing to confirm its insulating properties meet the required safety standards (IEC 60900) before it leaves the factory.

Can I use this screwdriver for prying or chiseling?

No, this tool is specifically designed for driving and removing screws. Using it for prying or chiseling can damage the insulation and the blade, compromising its safety and function.

What is the warranty period for this screwdriver?

Product warranty information is typically provided by the retailer or Bahco's official channels. Please refer to your purchase documentation or Bahco's website for specific warranty details.

How should I clean the black finish tip?

The black finish tip can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that could remove the finish, which aids in precision.

Troubleshooting

Screwdriver slips out of screw head

Ensure the 10.0mm slot size precisely matches the screw head slot. Verify the screw head is not stripped or damaged. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly into the screw slot.

Handle feels uncomfortable or provides poor grip

Ensure your hands are clean and dry. The two-component handle is designed for grip; if persistent discomfort occurs, consider the working angle or check for any debris on the handle.

Visible damage to insulation

Immediately cease use for any electrical work, especially live circuits. Mark the tool as defective and replace it. Continued use risks electric shock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides safety assurance when working on live circuits up to 1,000V.
  • Durable construction with high-performance alloy steel.
  • Ergonomic handle design enhances comfort and control.
  • Precise tip for better engagement with screw slots.
  • Meets stringent international safety standards (IEC 60900, ISO 8764).

Cons

  • Not suitable for voltages exceeding 1,000V.
  • Requires careful handling and inspection before each use on live equipment.
  • Specific tip size (10.0mm slot) limits its application to compatible screws.
  • Can be heavier than non-insulated counterparts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No specific setup is required. The screwdriver is ready for use out of the box.

Compatibility: This screwdriver is designed for slotted screws with a 10.0mm slot width. Ensure the screw head slot matches the screwdriver tip size for optimal performance and to prevent damage to the screw or tool.

Care:

  1. Inspection: Before each use, especially when working on live circuits, visually inspect the entire insulated shaft and handle for any signs of damage, cracks, cuts, or wear. If damage is found, do not use the screwdriver for live work.
  2. Cleaning: Clean the blade and handle with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can degrade the insulation. Ensure the tool is dry before storing.
  3. Storage: Store the screwdriver in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and corrosive substances. Protect the tip from damage.
