The drill is quite heavy with 1.7 kg in comparison to other devices, however, very well balanced, so that it is well at work in hand. The speed can be regulated very precisely. The switch forward / reverse operation is indeed easy to reach by hand, with which one performs the drill, but is quite stiff. To set the desired gear or torque both hands are needed. In construction, the device does not differ much from those of other manufacturers.
The housing is made of durable dark red plastic. Partly it is rubberized. Thus, the impact resistance, the grip is on the one hand increases, on the other hand improved. The drill head with the keyless chuck, the max. Drills can accommodate up to 10 mm, is very slim held, so that you can work quite well also in corners. The torque of 30 Nm in my opinion is enough for a device of the home improvement category.
It is very good that the drilling screwdriver is 2 batteries are supplied. The insertion and removal of the batteries is smooth, and they are firmly locked after insertion. The load capacity is 1.2Ah with not very high, but this is compensated by the second battery. The charger is made very simple - a red LED indicates that it is connected to an electrical outlet, a green that charging is taking place. It does not detect when the battery is fully loaded, but here must be completely left to the manufacturer referred to charging time of 3-5 hours. However, this means that you have to, remember the time when the charge started getting. The Capacity Gauge is not automatic in operation of the machine, but is visible only after pressing a switch.
The transport and storage case is made of durable plastic. When closing the upper and lower part come to lie exactly on one another, so that one also closed it quickly and easily. He has performed two walls, thereby running into the inner wall of the Screwdrivers, spare battery and charger exactly in the forms, and can keep everything safe and secure. There are still only a small compartment where you a few bits, the magnet holder or drill up to max. 65 mm length can stowed.
The device is a succinct but adequate and understandable operating instructions in German. However, for anyone who has ever used a cordless drill, this device can be operated intuitively. By registering your product at Einhell (via Internet), the guarantee period can be increased from 24 to 36 months. On the manufacturers website you can also find a link that leads directly to a source of spare parts that you do not need hope ;-)
