Troubleshooting
Socket does not fit fastener securely
Ensure you are using the correct size socket for the fastener. Verify that the fastener is metric and within the 17-24mm range of the set. Check the socket's internal drive for debris.
Socket shows signs of wear or damage after initial use
Confirm that the socket is being used with compatible impact tools and not exceeding its intended torque limits. Check for improper alignment with the fastener. Contact DeWalt support if damage is significant and appears to be a manufacturing defect.
Case latch is difficult to operate
Ensure no debris is obstructing the latch mechanism. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the latch hinges if stiffness persists. If the issue is with the locking mechanism, contact DeWalt customer service.
