To John's Iron Sanctuary,,,,, You are welcome!
I have owned that drill since the 1960's.
No nameplate then.
I am sure it is older than that.
It is stout! Really stout
I built a few custom houses on the side, back in the 70's.
Trying to keep up with the inflation and all.
On one house, a 2 story with a 235 # snow load roof, high up in the Sierra Nevada, I had to cut a drain waste 3" hole thru a pair of 2" x 6" plates in an already studded up interior wall.
The customer made a "change in plans" on a toilet location..
So, I chucked up a 3 1/4" Milwaukee hole cutter in that drill, got a good purchase and sunk the pilot drill in the marked place, and began to drill.
Remember there were two 2x6's already nailed in place.
Well, I hit a nail in the hidden 2x6, and the hole cutter stuck and the drill torque threw me into the next stud and the drill kept turning pinning me in the next stud pinning my ribs. I couldn't get my hand off the trigger as it was jammed.
There I was stuck with a running drill,still drilling away.
I yanked and yanked and finally got it un-plugged.
I was ok, bruised ribs and bruised hand.
Anyway, the drill has plenty of power, and have used it over the years since then.
I am now too old to use it as it was designed.
Maybe you can drill some holes in steel with it.
