How to get concrete out of the ground

JohnD · 11 Jul 2019

handy little tool, with a starter set of (poor quality) steels.

I got one of them for a job, completed it, and the drill still works, so I'm a winner.

IIRC it doesn't have a torque clutch, so if the drill jams, it can whirl you round (or just your arm)

Yeah no doubt they wouldn't be up to use by a builder, but for a DIY man like me, very occasional use, I reckon they'll be fine - chisel certainly went through that concrete. Mind you, I've never used a Kango or anything, so don't know what to expect. But as you say, did the job, anything after this is a bonus.

PS the instructions say that it does... here's hoping

good, that's much safer. Turn it to a low torque and see if the drive stops rotating when the drill jams.
