Driving ten 70 mm long wood screws felt like it was pushing this little drill driver to the limit. It got there, but the motor had to work hard. Even though I had set the torque selector to 16, the maximum, it still engaged when the screw head hit the material. There’s no chance of burying the head! I was forced to put it into drill mode to remove the screws as well. Although it took a bit longer, I was happy to see the Terratek put the 150 mm long wood screw neatly into the timber!
