Product Information

Full details

The Bosch EasyImpact 18V-38 is a versatile cordless hammer drill designed for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners needing a reliable tool for screwdriving, drilling, and impact drilling tasks. Its key benefit lies in its adaptability across various materials thanks to its 2-speed gearbox and 20 torque settings, coupled with the convenience of the POWER FOR ALL battery system. A potential caveat for some users might be its weight at just over 5 pounds, which could impact extended use for certain applications.

FAQs

What is the POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE?

It's a battery system alliance where one battery works across a wide range of tools from Bosch Home & Garden and other partner brands (like Gardena, Flymo, Steinel, etc.), saving you money and hassle.

Can I use batteries from other Bosch 18V tool series?

Yes, the EasyImpact 18V-38 is part of the Bosch 18V System and is compatible with all Bosch 18V batteries, including those from the POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE.

What is the maximum drill bit size for this hammer drill?

The tool features a 10 mm quick-action chuck, indicating it can accept drill bits with shanks up to 10 mm in diameter.

How long does the included 2.5 Ah battery typically last?

Battery life depends heavily on the task. For light screwdriving, it can last for many applications. For continuous heavy drilling, the runtime will be shorter. A 2.5 Ah battery is suitable for many common DIY tasks.

What is the difference between drilling and impact drilling?

Drilling uses rotation only. Impact drilling adds a hammering action to the rotation, which is effective for drilling into hard materials like concrete, brick, and masonry.

Does this tool come with drill bits?

This specific product package includes the drill, one 2.5 Ah battery, an AL 18V-20 charger, and a carrying case. Drill bits are typically sold separately or as part of a bit set.

Troubleshooting

Tool does not power on

Ensure the battery is correctly inserted and charged. Check if the battery contacts are clean. Try a different, known-good battery if available.

Screws are not driven in properly

Adjust the torque setting to a higher level. Ensure the correct screwdriver bit is used and fully engaged in the screw head. Check the selected mode (screwdriving).

Drilling performance is slow or weak

Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged. Select a higher speed on the 2-speed gearbox. For harder materials, switch to impact drilling mode if appropriate. Check if the drill bit is dull or appropriate for the material.

Chuck is difficult to open or close

Check the chuck for any debris or obstructions. Try opening and closing it multiple times to free it up. If persistent, consult the manual or customer support.
