Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Facom screwdriver, avoid using it as a pry bar or chisel, as the precision-ground tip can be damaged by side-loading. For compatibility, ensure the fastener slot width matches the 2.5mm tip size exactly to prevent cam-out. Storage should be kept in a dry environment to maintain the handle's integrity. Clean the blade periodically with a dry cloth to remove debris or oils that might cause slippage during operation.
