Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the tool, insert the 1/4-inch hex shaft into your impact driver's quick-connect chuck until it clicks. Select the desired flip socket and slide it onto the shaft according to the required fastener size. You can customize the arrangement of the sockets on the shaft to keep your most-used sizes at the front. To maintain the tool, wipe the shaft and sockets clean after use to remove metal shavings or debris that could impede the connection. Avoid using impact sockets with oil-heavy lubricants that may attract conductive metal filings in electrical panels. Store the set in a dry, organized tool pouch to protect the rare-earth magnet from accumulating metallic dust.
