How to use

Select the insulated screwdriver when working on circuits or equipment that require VDE-rated tools. Ensure the tool is clean and the insulation is undamaged before use. Fit the 5.5 mm blade into the slotted screw head and apply steady axial pressure while turning to avoid slipping; use controlled torque to prevent screw head damage. After use, inspect the insulation for cracks or wear, and store the tool separately from non-insulated tools to prevent accidental damage to the insulating layer.

Prior to any live work, verify that the screwdriver's insulation is intact and certified for the required voltage. Do not use the tool if the insulating coating is cut, cracked, or otherwise compromised. For safety, combine the insulated screwdriver with appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local electrical safety procedures.
