Multi-bit screwdriver Wera Kraftform Kompakt 60 RA-R Imperial 1 17 pcs

Compact 17-piece set including a 838 RA-R L bitholding screwdriver with ratchet function and sixteen 89 mm bits stored in a folding pouch. The handle contains a fine-tooth ratchet for fast working and an innovative mechanism that allows spinning of the driver when the screw offers little resistance. Direction is changed by turning the ring switch clockwise for tightening, counterclockwise for loosening; position 0 deactivates the ratchet for precise manual turning. The Rapidaptor quick-release chuck accepts bits with a 1/4" external hexagon drive (DIN ISO 1173-C 6.3 / E 6.3) for tool-free, rapid bit changes. The 89 mm bits are designed for general-purpose use.

How to use

Select the required 89 mm bit and insert it into the Rapidaptor quick-release chuck until it locks. Set the ring switch to the desired direction: clockwise for tightening, counterclockwise for loosening, or 0 to lock the ratchet for direct manual turning. For screws offering little resistance the ratchet allows free spinning; apply controlled pressure and use the Kraftform handle for comfortable manual torque. To change bits, press the Rapidaptor sleeve and remove the bit, then insert another bit until it engages.

Recommendations

Use appropriate bit types and sizes for the screw head to avoid damage. Keep the Rapidaptor chuck clean from debris to ensure reliable locking. Do not use the tool as a hammer or lever; observe recommended torque limits for fasteners and follow safety practices for hand tools.
