Troubleshooting
Screw head strips during installation
Ensure you are using the correct size Pozi drive bit and apply consistent, firm downward pressure while driving.
Wood splits when driving a screw
You are likely bypassing the need for a pilot hole; drill a small guide hole into the material before inserting the screw.
Screw is difficult to drive in fully
Verify that the pilot hole is deep enough and that you are not encountering a dense knot or hidden obstruction in the wood.
