How should I clean the screwdrivers?
Wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Ensure they are dried thoroughly and stored in a dry place.
What is included in the set?
The set includes 4 precision screwdrivers (Phillips #0, #1 and Slotted 2, 2.5mm), 2 stubby screwdrivers (Slotted 6mm, Pozi #2), and 2 regular screwdrivers (Pozi #2 x 100mm, Slotted 6 x 100mm).
Can I use these for electronics repair?
Yes, the precision screwdrivers are suitable for many common electronics tasks involving small screws.
Do the handles provide a non-slip grip?
Yes, the handles feature a two-tone, comfort grip design intended to provide a secure and comfortable hold.
Troubleshooting
Screwdriver slips out of screw head
Ensure you are using the correct size and type of screwdriver (Phillips, Pozi, Slotted) for the screw. Apply firm, consistent pressure directly into the screw head.
Handle feels uncomfortable during extended use
While designed for comfort, prolonged use can still cause fatigue. Take breaks as needed. Ensure your grip is relaxed but firm.
Shaft appears damaged or worn
Inspect the tip for any bending or rounding. If the tip is significantly damaged, the screwdriver may need to be replaced to avoid stripping screw heads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
