Peculiarities
Over the years of many years of work, the company's specialists have taken into account the numerous suggestions and comments of customers, creating a modern and reliable screwdriver, which in its performance characteristics is in no way inferior to eminent brands. The devices that came off the conveyor of the enterprise are distinguished by ergonomic shapes, compactness and modern design. All models are equipped with a reverse function that allows the tool to be rotated in both directions, so that the hardware can not only be twisted, but also twisted.
For the manufacture of the body and working units of the devices, high quality materials are used, which allows you to work with screwdrivers even in severe frost. Each model is capable of working in two speed modes, which allows some models to be used as a drill. However, a screwdriver can replace not only a drill, but also a medium-power perforator, due to which, by purchasing one tool instead of three, there is a real opportunity to save a budget and get a universal device for relatively little money.
The model range of screwdrivers has more than ten items, which greatly facilitates the selection of the desired product and allows you to satisfy any, even the most demanding, request. Many models are equipped with a number of additional functions, which, although they increase the final cost of the device, are quite necessary and convenient. Among these options are additional lighting that allows you to work in the dark, electronic control and a spindle lock function, which makes it easier to change the drill or bit.
In addition, the instruments are equipped with double-sleeve keyless chucks, which allow quick tool changes without the use of a special toothed key. There is also a torque regulator in the devices, which makes it possible to work in 15 modes. Each screwdriver has an electronic protection system that does not allow the motor to overheat during operation and protects it from network overloads. The models are lightweight and most of them weigh only 1 kg.

Operating rules
When working with the device, you should follow a number of simple recommendations:
- work with a cordless screwdriver can only be started after the charging indicator turns green;
- do not leave the device on charge for more than 8 hours;
- it is advisable to charge the batteries before sending the device for storage;
- installation of the tool is carried out with smooth rotational movements until complete fixation;
- when performing work, the screwdriver must be kept strictly perpendicular to the working surface;
- do not allow the tool to come into contact with ungrounded devices;
- working with a screwdriver, it is necessary to protect the eyes and skin.
Selection Tips
The choice of a screwdriver depends entirely on the purpose for which the tool is purchased and how often it will be used. So, when buying a home assistant, you can choose an inexpensive network model with a power of up to 650 watts. If it is supposed to work in a summer cottage or in a garage where there is no access to an electric power source, then the battery model should be chosen
When buying professional equipment, you should pay attention to powerful, over 900 W, percussion models with an electric drill function.
With such a tool it will be possible not only to carry out standard manipulations of twisting / unscrewing and drilling, but also to use it as a medium-power perforator, as well as to knead any mortar. Next, you need to look at the amount of torque. For household appliances, 30 N * m is quite enough, while in professional equipment this figure should be about 130 N * m.
The next selection criterion will be the availability of additional functions such as backlight or spindle lock when changing drill or bit. These options are quite convenient, but optional, and if the device is used from time to time, then it is better to purchase the simplest version of it, without overpaying for functions that you may not have to use.
If the device is chosen for the home or for assembling furniture, then the rotation speed in this case is not so important: to twist - to unscrew the hardware, even the most low-power device will turn out. However, if the device will be used as a drill, then it is better to choose a high-speed device. This is due to the fact that the greater the number of revolutions of the tool, the easier it is to control such a mechanism, and the smoother the edges of the holes being formed are.

spindle, depending on the nature of the work performed. The gearbox itself is completely
made of metal, which guarantees a long service life.
There is a built-in LED for work in low light conditions
backlight.
The design provides for the possibility of attaching the screwdriver to the belt
the belt using the practical hook included in the delivery.
It should be noted that this model is quite expensive to maintain.

a free sale can always find a Chinese counterpart for a reasonable price.
This model has several configuration options. Differences
concern the type of charger and the capacity of the batteries, which
varies from 1.3 to 2.0 A * h. Regardless of the battery capacity,
all screwdrivers are supplied in branded plastic cases.
Varieties of models and their characteristics
The assortment of Zubr screwdrivers is quite diverse. The enterprise has launched the production of not only classic monofunctional devices, but also a number of universal power tools: impact and impactless drills, screwdrivers, cordless screwdrivers and wrenches. The mechanisms are classified according to several criteria, the main of which is the way the device is powered. According to this criterion, network and battery devices are distinguished.
The Zubr mains electric screwdriver is a device, the power source of which is an electrical network with a voltage of 220 V. The models are equipped with a cable up to 5 meters long and can be operated exclusively from an outlet. The advantages of electric screwdrivers are considered light weight, stable engine power during operation, an affordable price and a wide range. The disadvantages include the need to have a nearby source of electrical power, which is why the scope of network devices is somewhat limited.
The devices are equipped with an electronic protection system that protects against overload or, on the contrary, deep discharge of the batteries. Thanks to the use of lithium-ion models, the productivity of the devices has increased by 35%, and power losses during operation are practically reduced to zero. The advantages of battery samples are a wider scope of application than networked ones, and the ability to work in hard-to-reach places. The disadvantages include the need to charge the battery and the rather large weight of the devices.
The company produces a large number of models, different in their power, power supply and price. Despite the fact that they are all of high quality and reliability, some of them should be highlighted.
