Troubleshooting

Screw head shears off during insertion.

Reduce driving speed or pre-drill a pilot hole. Ensure you are using the correct driver bit size (PZ2).

Screw doesn't fully countersink.

Ensure the pilot hole is the correct size. Apply more pressure while driving the screw.

Screw is difficult to insert.

Pre-drill a pilot hole, especially in hardwoods. Check for obstructions in the pre-drilled hole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Choose the correct screw length based on the thickness of the materials being joined. Ensure you have the appropriate PZ2 driver bit.
  2. Pilot Holes: Pre-drill pilot holes, especially in hardwoods, to prevent splitting.
  3. Insertion: Align the screw with the materials and use the PZ2 driver bit to drive the screw in until the head is flush with the surface.
  4. Compatibility: Compatible with softwood, chipboard, MDF, and masonry (with a plastic plug).
  5. Care: Store screws in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Ensure the correct driver bit is used to avoid damaging the screw head.
