- Does it come with a battery?
- No. It is a bare tool, so you need an M18 battery and charger. A high-capacity pack like the 9.0 Ah gives the best runtime.
- How does it compare with a corded SDS Max hammer?
- It gets close on drilling and chipping power and frees you from outlets. A corded unit still wins for all-day heavy demolition and never needs charging.
- What size bits does it take?
- It uses SDS Max bits, with a solid-bit capacity of 1-9/16 inches. That covers most anchor, rebar and core drilling jobs.
- Can it chip and break concrete?
- Yes. It has a chipping mode alongside drill and hammer-drill modes, so it handles light demolition and tile or concrete removal.
- Is it too heavy for overhead work?
- Many owners find it tiring overhead at around 12 lb before the battery. For long overhead jobs, a smaller SDS Plus hammer is easier to control.
- Which battery should I use?
- Use a high-capacity M18 pack such as the 9.0 Ah for runtime. Smaller packs save weight but shorten run time on heavy drilling.
