How do I actually fit bits in here? Mine don't seem to fit, despite looking just like the pictures. Thanks!

Only first a Phillips or flat head bit by it self, not with an apex styler bit holder

start by pushing the bit at an angle. if the holder is new it may require a bit more force. once the clip is broken in it may go easier to get the bits in place. hope it helped a little have a nice day

The metal clip holds a standard hex shank bit. Perhaps you are using a bigger/smaller bit...? Perhaps clip is too tight and needs to be loosened through use..? Sorry I can't do better without more info.

The end that you put in to the drill snaps into the metal part of the bit holder, if the other end does not fit in the bit holder, swing it the other way, it won't fit perfectly in the holder but it will still hold.

Look at my review dated today, 5/26/14, and that will explain why some of these clips won't work. The explanation will also offer you a fix so that it will work the way it's supposed to [if you haven't already thrown them away].

I don't remember the bit size, but as a general rule, just start small. :-)

Thanks, your answers are all appreciated. Now I must decide whether or it's worthwhile to buy this and have to buy all new drill bits or go with a conventional model that accepts all the bits I already own.

Sorry, I had to send mine back because the parts were not correct and the holes would not line up. Good luck.

Did you try to put it on? I know it appears to be round, but mine snaps onto the square drive of the tool just fine. Then, each bit can be locked into the opposite end. Hope this helps!

This all snaps apart and together depending on which tool you need so I don't see how you could utilize any other bit to fit it. So I am saying no.

The drill bits are not marked for diameter size in any way. Not is the diameter sizes marked on the packaging. I just go by a visual for size needed.

Just push in bit with some force. It will fit it snuggly. Pull out to remove.

This fit my Kenmore gas grill just fine, but my old pieces looked just like the photo. It sounds like your inserts are not the same as the picture, so all bets are off. You should measure the total length and width of your present setup and see if an even number of these items will fit (the Amazon website gives the length and width). If so then order the right number and check the fit in your grill. If it's a no-go then send them back for a refund. If you are not sure about the measurements etc. then it is probably best not to order, since your model Kenmore is not listed as being correct.

I have only had luck using DeWalt bits. I tried some RotoZip bits but they are too big. I haven't tried anything else, so someone but have had better luck with some other bit.

I had the same problem, so I asked my husband and he was able to push the bit in, and now I'm able to put the other bits in myself. Although it works ok, the bits now come out sometimes when using the drill. Hope this helps.

My sockets were so old they had gotten out-of-round and the inserts wouldn't fit. I straightened the sockets as well as I could and then forced the inserts in. I then took a drill with a 1/2" bit and went through the insert to take out the distortion (from being in the out-of-round socket) and it worked fine!

I took pictures of the inside of my box hoping to be able to send you those but without your email address I'm unable to do that; this product is listed as a "drill/driver" set, and from what I can deduce by looking at everthing, there aren't any "hex" bits (there are some bits that "look" sort of like hex bits but I'm not certain. You may need to contact DeWalt or go to a hardware store that carries this item and look at it personally.

It's probably because you aren't putting the bit in correctly. You have to pull the front tip of drill out a little bit then insert drill bit. Bit will lock in place. If you can't figure it out go see a tool store. Hope this helps

Assuming you're using the bits that came with drill, they all fit. Did you try opening the top, using the releaser (button on the silver part) and twisting the ridged dial? That will open the top so you can adjust to the stem of the bit... Make sure to secure it tight so it doesn't fly off or get loose during use.

I relooked at the question- go to 'google": type fit bit zip and read the specifications. Looks pretty small- likely-I would say- though not 100% sure

That would not concern me. Mine does too. A lot of slotted tools that take bits do that, but if you're holding it upside down and the bit is falling out without touching it, your bit-extender is probably the problem and it's not retaining the bit. Otherwise, I wouldn't be critical if there is some movement.
