The description says it is a 'right angle flex shaft' but in the picture it appears to be pointing to the left - is this the right or left version?

You have to use it in the down position. Then it switches to a right angle flex shaft, but only if turned clockwise. Might work if you turned it counter-clockwise, but never tried it that way.

Does the phillips bit on the end come out? mine won't. i don't see any way this tool can be used with a drill bit? so, phillips screwdriver use only?

Push in on the front silver collar, the bit will pop out. Works with all hex quick release bits

can you use hex shank nut drivers with this too? like a 7/16 bit or just screwdriver bits?

If it's got a 1/4" shaft, this thing will turn it.

The bit seems to almost sink all the way into the shaft. There seems to be no way to tighten bit in the shaft. Is this how it is supposed to be?

You won't be able to "tighten" the bit up, push down on the bit and it will "lock" in place, push down on the silver ring to "unlock". The bit is designed to sink low to give maximum clearance in tight spaces and to be able to hold the screw between your thumb and index finger if need be and space allows. If you don't need that much space you can always use longer bits.

Can Speed Up the Work

This is going to be very useful when working on the car or the motorcycle for running on or off fasteners in tight places where the bulky, cordless drill can't reach. I almost never use a ratchet anymore, it's a breaker bar and cordless drill to remove the fastener, and the drill and torque wrench to replace it. This item is like a micro-drill that can get into the tight spaces and spin a fastener on or off, so that I don't have to waste time ratcheting, ratcheting, ratcheting, etc.

Brilliant tool, well worth the cost!

I bought this to install an aluminum fence. The screws for each panel were behind the fence and are not easy to get to from the back. This tool worked great and allowed me to get to the screw holes when it was impossible to get a drill back there! There are cheaper alternatives out there but they're not built like the Dewalt. This thing is heavy duty!

Valuable tool-works well with Dewalt drill

Unable to complete screw installation project without this tool. Good for medium duty screw installations in tight or confining areas.

Great product

Works great! Tough enough to withstand when the screw is tight and you over torque it.
