Re: [OT] Inserting bits into an SDS drill...

["Andrew Kilgore" <amkilgore@xxxxxxx>]

Frank/James,

Thanks for your help.
After a bit of mucking about I've managed to formulate my own
instructions...

Means I can start playing with my Electical Box Sinker (EBS) set this

Thanks,
Andy.

> Hi Andy
>             Not sure what SDS is but i think its what they call here a
Rotarty Hammer Drill...I have a couple of Ramset Rotary drills...The chuck
is spring loaded so it helps if  pulled back and push and twist the
drill..I
have trouble occassionly inserting a drill bit.........Thay are bloody
terrific though makes easy work drilling into concrete and bricks..........
