Pro Tips

  • Use the CENTROTEC chuck for fast accessory changes and the keyless chuck when using standard round-shank drill bits.
  • For repetitive screwdriving, set the torque properly to avoid overdriving screws into soft timber or board materials.
  • Use the lower gear for controlled screwdriving and the higher gear for faster drilling applications.
  • Pair the drill with a Festool Li-HighPower Compact battery for a lighter, better balanced setup.

  • Select the correct chuck or attachment for the task.
