FAQs
What types of screws can I use this set with?
This set includes bits for Phillips (PH1, PH2, PH3), Parallel (6mm, 7mm), Torx® (TX10, TX15, TX20, TX25, TX27), and Hex (3mm, 4mm) screws. It also includes metric and imperial sockets for nuts and bolts.
Is this set suitable for professional construction work?
This set is best suited for light to medium-duty DIY, home repairs, and automotive accessory work. For heavy construction or continuous professional trade use, a more specialized and heavy-duty set might be required.
How do I switch the direction of the ratchet?
Most ratchet screwdrivers have a selector ring or switch on the handle. Slide or rotate this mechanism to choose between forward (tightening), reverse (loosening), or a locked position (for manual use).
Can I use my own 1/4in bits with this handle?
Yes, the set includes a 1/4in adaptor, and the handle itself is designed to accept standard 1/4in drive bits and sockets.
What are the included metric socket sizes?
The metric sockets included are 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm.
What are the included imperial socket sizes?
The imperial sockets included are 1/4in, 5/16in, 11/32in, 3/8in, 7/16in, and 1/2in.
How should I store the set to prevent losing parts?
The set comes in a case designed to hold each piece in its specific slot. Always return bits and sockets to their designated places in the case after use.
Troubleshooting
Ratchet mechanism not engaging
Ensure the directional switch is fully moved to the desired direction (forward, reverse, or lock). Check for debris obstruction in the mechanism and clean if necessary.
Bit or socket not fitting securely
Verify that you are using the correct size bit or socket for the fastener. Ensure the bit or socket is fully inserted into the handle's drive mechanism and is seated properly.
Stripped screw head when using the tool
Ensure the correct bit size and type is used. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly in line with the screw. If the head is already damaged, this tool may not be suitable for removal.
Handle feels loose or wobbly
Check that the bit or socket is fully inserted. If the issue persists, there might be wear in the drive mechanism, indicating the tool has seen significant use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The set is ready for immediate use. Simply select the desired bit or socket, insert it firmly into the ratchet screwdriver handle, and engage the ratchet mechanism by pressing the button or sliding the directional switch. Ensure the bit or socket is fully seated before applying force.
Compatibility: The included bits and sockets are designed for the 1/4in drive of the ratchet handle. The adaptor allows for the use of other standard 1/4in drive accessories. It is compatible with most common screw head types represented by the included bits (Phillips, Parallel, Torx®, Hex) and common small nuts and bolts within the specified metric and imperial ranges.
Care: To maintain performance, keep the tool clean and dry. After use, wipe down the bits and sockets to remove any debris or grease. Store all components in the provided case to prevent loss and protect the tools from damage. Periodically check the ratchet mechanism for smooth operation and clean any dust or grime that may accumulate.
