Is this drill suitable for breaking up concrete?

I've got two 6-foot iron posts in the garden (old washing line posts) embedded in concrete, which I want to remove. I was wondering if this drill would do the job of breaking up the concrete.

It would also be used for many other jobs that it's ideal for but I was wondering if it would be up to this particular job.

It's a great drill, i know as i have one, but it is definately not the tool for that job! You would need at the very least a 5/6kg or the tool of choice would be a 10kg-ish breaker.

Easier and quicker than that would be to Borrow/ buy a heavy 14lb sledge.

That's a nice drill, having borrowed one, but not man enough to crack concrete with any speed.

You can hire a 10kg breaker for 30-50 quid for a day, which will munch through fairly easily.

Thanks both for the speedy replies. As I suspected really.
