FAQs
What does 'PlusMinus' (SL/PH) mean for the screwdriver tip?
PlusMinus tips are designed to fit screws that have slots for both a flathead (slotted) screwdriver and a Phillips head screwdriver. This provides enhanced grip and torque transfer in electrical applications.
What is the maximum voltage this set can safely handle?
This set is certified for work in the area of live parts up to 1,000 V AC, adhering to IEC 60900:2004 standards.
Can I use these screwdrivers for general household repairs?
While they can be used for general purposes, their primary design and PlusMinus tips are optimized for electrical work. For standard household screws, traditional Phillips or flathead screwdrivers might be more suitable.
How does the SoftFinish handle benefit the user?
The ergonomic SoftFinish handle is designed to reduce pressure on the hand and muscles during use, making it more comfortable for extended periods and recommended by health professionals for preventing strain.
What material are the blades made of?
The blades are made from high-quality chromium-vanadium-molybdenum steel, which is through-hardened and bronzed for durability and corrosion resistance.
What is the benefit of the 'slim blade' design?
The slim blade design ensures better access to screws that are set deeply or in confined spaces, which is common in electrical enclosures and equipment.
Troubleshooting
Screwdriver slips on screw head.
Ensure you are using the correct size PlusMinus (SL/PH) tip for the screw. Verify the screw head is not damaged. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly into the screw head.
Difficulty accessing recessed screws.
The slim blade design is intended to improve access. If still inaccessible, consider alternative tools or methods specific to the confined space.
Insulation appears damaged.
Discontinue use immediately if the protective insulation shows any signs of damage (cuts, cracks, or wear). Replace the screwdriver to ensure electrical safety.
