What each tool is for

Drill

• Drilling holes in wood, plastic, and metal
• Driving screws when you want torque control (using the clutch)

Impact driver

• Driving long/large screws and bolts with high torque
• Uses rotation + concussive impacts
• Not suitable for precision drilling

Limitations

• There are many bit types — follow manufacturer guidance for specific bits and materials
• Dull/damaged bits are hazardous and can damage the tool and workpiece

Anatomy (key parts)

• Handle/grip
• Trigger (variable speed)
• Forward/reverse switch
• Chuck (drill) / quick-release collet (impact driver)
• Clutch/torque selector (drill only)
• Speed selector (gear 1: low speed/high torque; gear 2: high speed/lower torque)
• Battery
