Before beginning installation of your deck, you will need the following:
• CAMO®DRIVE™Tool
• CAMO®Collated Fasteners
• Driver Drill (Corded or cordless)
• Optional: Secondary Spacers if a gap is desired
DRIVE tool setup:
• Make sure you have a T15 DRIVE bit installed in the DRIVE tool. The T15 bit is identified with a yellow and orange color
band on the bit.
• Attach the edge guide on the DRIVE tool (see changing the guide section on page 7).
• Drill clutch setting: If your driver drill has a clutch setting it should be in “drill or maximum torque” setting position.
FASTENER INSTALLATION - EDGE SCREW
Edge Screw Fastening with the DRIVE™enables you to install a beautiful fastener-free deck surface at an incomparable speed.
Engineered for no gap installation of treated lumber. If gapped installation is desired, use secondary spacers.
Gap Options:
The CAMO®DRIVE™allows for multiple gap options when installing deck boards. For wet treated lumber, the zero gap option
allows builders to butt deck boards tightly together. If a gap is desired, secondary spacers may be used between the boards.
Board Installation:
To begin deck installation, lay the first board that abuts the structure into position. Starting with the outside edge of the board,
fasten the deck board at each joist using the CAMO®DRIVE™as follows:
For the outer board end of the deck board, align the Edge Guide with the joist below the deck board (a minimum of 1’’ from
board ends). Place the nose of the DRIVE™tool so that the Edge Guide is flat to the board surface, with the Edge Guide tight to
the board edge.
Using the Tool Handle, apply downward pressure to make sure that the nose stays firmly in position with the board edge
throughout the drive process.
While maintaining positive pressure on the DRIVE™tool, push the Driver Drill down to engage the bit and screw. Depress the
drill trigger and, running the drill at full RPM, drive the screw applying pressure throughout. DO NOT FORCE THE SCREW. Allow
the Edge screw to spin and auger the surface. After a moment, the screw will grab and pull into the board. The drill and tool
will be fully compressed when the screw is fully seated. When driven fully and correctly, the finished position of the Edge screw
should be just below the surface of the edge. It should not protrude from the side of the board. (Adjust if necessary.)
Once the fastener is driven, retract the driver drill fully allowing the next screw to be pulled into place for driving. The next
fastener will automatically be loaded into drive position. Repeat down the length of the board.
Place the next deck board in position and push tight to the board abutting the structure. Repeat process above.
For the inside edge of the deck board, align the Edge Guide with the joist below the deck board, positioning the Edge Guide
between the two adjoining deck boards. Make sure that the Edge Guide is parallel with the surface of the deck board and
the Edge Guide is firmly against the radius of the edge of the deck board. Maintain firm pressure against the deck board
throughout the drive process.
Repeat down the length of the board until the board is secured at every joist and both sides of the board.. Do not skip any
joists. Repeat for remaining deck boards.

FASTENER INSTALLATION - EDGECLIP & EDGEXCLIP
DRIVE tool setup:
• Make sure you have a T15 DRIVE bit installed in the DRIVE tool. The T15 bit is identified with a yellow and orange color
band on the bit.
• ATTENTION! ONLY USE THE COLOR-CODED DRIVE BIT - BIT INCLUDED IN THE EDGECLIP OR
EDGEXCLIP PAILS IS FOR HAND DRIVE
• Attach the clip guide on the DRIVE tool (see changing the guide section on page 7).
• It is not necessary to load any screws into the DRIVE tool as the EdgeClips and EdgeXClips come pre-assembled.
• Drill clutch setting: If your drill has a clutch setting please start by setting the clutch to a medium low setting (30% of
maximum torque). Drive tool should drive the screw and snugly tighten down the board. If that torque setting is not
sucient to allow the screw to be driven completely, slightly increase the torque until the the screws securely tighten the
clip in place. Excessive torque can cause over-driving resulting screw spin-out or stripping.
Board Installation:
Once your starter board is fastened in place you are ready to begin installing the rest of your deck with EdgeClip or EdgeXClip
using the DRIVE tool.
Follow the Clip installation instructions included with your EdgeClip or EdgeXClip for instruction on placing the clips in the
groove of the decking.
Once your clips are set between the deck boards, you can now use the DRIVE tool to tighten down all of the clips securing your
decking.
• Place the Clip Guide installed on your DRIVE tool over the screw
• Depress the drill trigger running at full RPM and apply downward pressure
• The Clip Guide will direct the DRIVE bit engaging the head of the screw and securing the clip in place

Face Screw Fastening with the DRIVE™allows you to face screw deck boards down using CAMO®collated face wood screws
and CAMO®color matched composite screws.
DRIVE tool setup:
• Make sure you have a T20 DRIVE bit installed in the DRIVE tool. The T20 bit is identified with a black color band on the
bit.
• Attach the clip guide on the DRIVE tool (see changing the guide section on page 7).
• Drill clutch setting: If your driver drill has a clutch setting it should be in “drill or maximum torque” setting position.
Gap Options:
The CAMO®DRIVE™allows for multiple gap options when installing deck boards. For wet treated lumber, the zero gap option
allows builders to butt deck boards tightly together. If a gap is desired, secondary spacers may be used between the boards.
Board Installation:
Be sure that you have the correct bit size inserted for the fastener that you are driving! The DRIVE™has both of the necessary
bit sizes include in the package.
Screw Drive Depth:
Utilizing the Depth dial on the tool, you can adjust the depth of drive to your preference.
To begin deck board installation, lay the first board into position. Fasten the deck board with 2 screws at each joist using the
CAMO®DRIVE™as follows:
Using the Tool Handle, apply downward pressure to make sure that the nose stays firmly in position with the board throughout
the drive process.
While maintaining positive pressure on the DRIVE™tool, push the Driver Drill down to engage the bit and screw. Depress the
drill trigger and, running the drill at full RPM, drive the screw applying pressure throughout. The screw will be fully driven once
the driver drill and tool are full compressed.
Once the fastener is driven, retract the driver drill fully allowing the next screw to be pulled into place for driving. The next
fastener will automatically be loaded into drive position.
Repeat down the length of the board until the entire plank is installed. Do not skip any joists.
