Installation Notes

Insert bits should be seated fully into the bit holder before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the bit tip for wear or rounding before each use, and replace if the point shows deformation. No power shutoff is required for bit changes, but always follow site safety protocols when working near energized equipment.
