How to use

Select the Wiha SoftFinish electric 2831-18 SW 3 for fasteners that match the SW 3 hex size. Before starting work, verify that the tool’s insulation is intact and suitable for the voltage environment you will encounter. Insert the hex tip fully into the fastener head to ensure correct engagement. Apply steady torque along the shaft axis, avoiding excessive bending or side loading. For repetitive tasks, maintain a consistent hand position on the SoftFinish handle to preserve accuracy and reduce fatigue.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the tip for wear and the handle insulation for cracks or damage. Use the tool only within its intended electrical protection limits and follow local safety procedures when working near live circuits. Store in a dry, clean place and replace the screwdriver if tip deformation or insulation compromise is observed.
