FAQs
What is the maximum drilling capacity for this hammer drill?
The drill has a maximum drilling capacity of 26mm in concrete, 30mm in wood, and 13mm in steel.
What type of drill bits does this tool use?
This is an SDS+ rotary hammer drill, so it requires SDS+ shank drill bits and chisels.
How long will the 2.0Ah batteries last?
Runtime varies significantly based on the application (drilling, chiseling, material type) and intensity of use. The 2.0Ah batteries are suitable for general tasks, but for continuous heavy-duty work, higher capacity batteries (e.g., 4.0Ah or 5.0Ah) are recommended for longer operation time between charges.
Can this drill be used for light demolition or heavy chiseling?
It is designed for light chiseling applications such as removing render or tiles. For heavy demolition, a larger, more powerful rotary hammer or breaker would be more appropriate.
Does the drill come with bits included?
The product description does not specify included bits, but it does include 2 x 2.0ah Batteries, 1 x Charger, and 1 x Tstak Case.
What is the difference between the modes?
There are three modes: Rotation with Hammer (for concrete/masonry drilling), Rotation Only (for wood/metal drilling), and Hammer Only (for light chiseling).
Is this drill suitable for drilling into metal?
Yes, when set to the 'Rotation Only' mode (impact stop), it can be used for drilling into metal and wood.
Troubleshooting
Drill does not start
Ensure the battery is properly inserted and charged. Check if the trigger lock is engaged. Verify the mode selector is not between settings.
Reduced hammering or drilling power
Check if the correct mode is selected. Ensure the SDS+ bit is properly seated and not worn. Clean dust from the chuck and vents. Batteries may be low on charge.
Bit is difficult to insert or remove
Ensure the chuck is in the correct position for bit insertion (usually by pulling the chuck sleeve back). Clean the bit shank and chuck. Do not force bits; use only compatible SDS+ bits.
Overheating
Ensure ventilation slots are clear of debris. Allow the tool to cool down if used continuously for extended periods under heavy load. Check battery status.
