Design flaw - don't buy it!!

Date:January 13, 2012

"As was another reviewer's experience, the bit jammed solid in the chuck in mine after very little use, and it was impossible to get it out. With a better chuck, it would be an ok tool, but as it is now, it's useless. Just thankful I only paid $30 for it."

Great light to medium duty tool

Date:January 13, 2012

"This thing is great for stuff like decking, fencing, etc. It's not intended for nor will it work well for mechanical applications. It's best to understand your tool and use it accordingly. I have a number of impact driver tools, each for their own application.

This one is perfect for these jobs screwing together 2x4's, 4x4's, etc. I have the 1/2 drive impact gun for real impact work, and a 1/4 drive hex impact driver for more portable, light duty work. Air impact ofr the big stuff.

This is the perfect compliment to my other impact drivers, as it handles the above mentioned jobs very well. Keep in mind that this is not intended for commercial or heavy-duty use. Doing so will no doubt result in the issues others report of the bits jamming.

Always on sale for $30 or so, this is a bargain."

Excellent for deck building and aluminum railing

Date:July 9, 2011

"I bought this tool on sale and finally used it on my deck. It's an excellent tool! I found using a regular drill, I would be stripping the screw heads, even with drills with torque settings. But this drill is excellent because if the screw gets tough, then the impact of the drive takes in effect, resulting in screws driven without stripping the screw heads. Lots of power, but use it for it's intended use, working with wood, NOT for wheel lugs NOR automotive work. You need real air impact tools for auto work."

Design flaw - do not buy!

Date:May 25, 2011

"Obviously, this unit has a BIG design flaw: the socket adapter and, eventually, the bits WILL get seized. I've exchanged three of these in a week and, finally, ended up with another product that works surprisingly well. CT sells a similar 3.5A driver BUT with 1/4 socket tip. In order to use the screw-driver bit you have to use the included adapter. No more seizing and it has enough power to drive all sorts of deck screws and nuts.

So, don't buy this one, but get that one (Mastercraft 3KO Corded Impact Wrench
Product #54-1216-4) when it goes on special for $39.99."

Do not run the impact for too long

Date:April 24, 2011

"Ok,, I bought mine yesterday...out of the box it looked great...I used it to loosen my wheel nuts on my wheelchair (I'm a quadraplegic, it would have taken me forever by hand) but then I tightened it and all's nice...then I press the trigger and the impact sound is still there?? What this about...I'm bringin it back tuesday and getting the 7.5 A...I need more power!!"

Works well but....

Date:April 16, 2011

"Purchased this on sale at 30 $ !! at first I was amazed because for the price this thing performs very well, I know its not a big impact gun so I used it mostly as a screwdriver, the clutch setting was on the spot, activating with medium sized screws and up. It offered plenty of power for lag bolts too, but after 3 months of occasional usage, a bit jammed in the in the socket... after a few attempts I successfully retrieved it, but as it went on, it happened more frequently up to the point that the bit I used is completely jammed.... after 6-7 months of occasional light work I am stuck with a driver that only works on Robertson #2... its too bad because for a 30 $ unit it was excellent."

Great if used for its intended purpose

Date:February 10, 2011

"Seriously people, don't expect a 1/4" drive to be useful for removing lug nuts. Get the right tool for the job.

This is an impact driver - very useful for driving long screws into wood, or maybe on nuts/bolts up to about 3/8".

It goes on sale for $30 or so, and at that price, it's a great deal. I've used it to drive construction screws, and it does a great job of that - much better than my trusty old DeWalt. The great thing about impact drivers is that they don't try to wrench your arm off if they get stuck (as a normal drill/screw gun would).

My only complaint is that it has a fairly long body, making it awkward to fit between joist spaces. If they made a right-angle version of this, it would be perfect!"

Impact Driver Useful but has a basic fault

Date:November 10, 2010

"Bought for use in screwing in concrete screws. It worked to my expectations and was a great tool.
However, the screw bit is now stuck in the chuck and will not unlock the bit. This tool has now become a one screw type, one function tool that is now basically useless to me. Frustrating!!!"

Glorified Hammer Drill

Date:October 19, 2010

"Might as well buy a hammer drill because this thing is no better than that. The silly hex attachments are going to break if not right away very quickly. Returned within an hour of buying and five minutes of using

DOES NOT TAKE OFF CAR BOLTS! DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE INFLATED TORQUE RATING"

Adjust the Torque?

Question:

I'm not using this to change tires, but to do some reno around the house that needs a more powerfull drill.

Is it possible to adjust the torque on this drill? are their any other adjustable settings?

xentelworker

Answer:

The only way to control the torque is with the variable speed trigger switch. Depressing the switch all the way down will give you 1400 In/lbs of torque. If you're not getting enough torque, you may want to consider upgrading to a 7.5A Impact Wrench that will give you 2880 In/Lbs of torque and the product number is 54-2734-4.

Wheel nut tightening

Question:

Does this drill tighten the nuts completely or do they need to be finished off by hand tightening? Also wondered if the nuts/thread can be damaged using this drill if too much torque is applied?

Answer:

Would not trust this thing to do anything on my car. ALWAYS use torque wrench or tire iron to apply safe torque

AceofTrades

Answer:

They need to be tighted manually after you are done - it doesn't quite finish it. Same for removal, you need to get the nuts started - this will not pull them off by itself, but does speed up the unthreading. I don't think too much torque will damage the nuts, but recommend hand-starting the nuts to ensure they don't cross-thread.

simpig

Answer:

Wheel nuts should be finished with a torque wrench to tighten to Manufacturers specifications. The nuts or thread of the wheel bolts are built to withstand tightening from electric or pneumatic tools.
