That is a great bit of advice, I have had no problem, but hypothetically if a bolt is in really tight it could happen, I don't know. Mind if I reference it?
Cheers,

It stripped the internal gears in the tool. The bolts weren't that tight either. So a word of advice. While I cannot speak on the quality of this particular tool, generally when using this type of tool on larger bolts, I suggest loosening them by hand a bit first.
That said, these are a great for taking off the under tray. No need to even jack up the car. You can take the tray off in five minutes or less.
