You can use conductive tools on both BUT there are a few issues.
Using a metal nut driver on the trimmer caps is a little problematic. Some of the trimmers have HV present so the driver needs to be insulted so it doesn't short against any metal object near the trimmer. And you don't want to find yourself between the chassis and the metal portion of the driver. A layer of tape works ok.
The weigh of the driver can depress the copper sheet on the trimmer and not give you a proper alignment. I'll notice when you remove the driver the alignment will shift.
On the screw adjustment same as the nuts in terms of the HV. The weigh doesn't come into play.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
