Bits can slip if the tips are very worn or are poor quality. Try the following:

  • Inspect the tip of the Bit to ensure it is not excessively worn.   
  • Ensure you are using the correct Bit for the fastener. Refer to the fastener packaging for correct Bit type and size.
  • When driving screws, make sure your impact driver is held straight with firm pressure applied to the Drill to ensure a firm and secure fitment between the Bit and the fastener.
    • To drive screws, place forward pressure on the screw while simultaneously and gradually increasing the pressure on the trigger.
