Official Craftsman power screwdriver parts

Parts and accessories that you'll need for your Craftsman power screwdriver

• Screwdriver bits. You'll need to replace missing, worn and damaged screwdriver bits that you need to complete projects. You may also need specialty screwdriver bits for projects which require you to drive screws into hard metal.
• Carbon motor brushes. Carbon motor brushes transfer electric current to the spinning armature in the motor. You'll need to replace carbon motor brushes when they wear down to ¼-inch in length.
• Trigger switch. The trigger switch starts and stops the power screwdriver motor. Replace the trigger switch if it doesn't send current to the drive motor when you pull the trigger.
• Drive motor. The drive motor spins the chuck and screwdriver bit to drive screws into the work piece. Replace the drive motor if it doesn't run when it gets electrical current.

Work area safety guidelines to follow when using your Craftsman power screwdriver

• Work in a well-lit area so you can clearly see the work piece and the location of the screwdriver bit.
• Make sure that your work area is well-ventilated. Don't operate your power screwdriver in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
• Keep children and bystanders away from the work area when operating the power screwdriver. Distractions can cause you to lose control of the power screwdriver.
• Wear work gloves to protect your hands and eye protection when using the power screwdriver.
