The icon is a little different to what I’ve seen on others and I don’t know how to tell otherwise.

Thanks!

For anyone new to drills:

Please do not use the drill setting for screws, you’re gonna strip the head and regret it. Even with years of experience, being too lazy to turn the dial has burned me countless times

I only recently learned that the numbers are there for screwing not drilling! 🤪

You gotta start somewhere.

You’re smarter than me for asking, though. I learned through trial and error and getting yelled at by my boss
