This is a great review and its well edited. I can really tell you put a lot of effort into editing and you also make a lot of videos. This needs more views 👍😀
It's my understanding, or at least my assumption, that there ought to be a difference in sound, motion, feel, etc, between the "drill" and "hammer" settings. However, I have one of these, and all it seems to do, in either switch position, is "drill," with no apparent "hammer" action -- which is useless for the work I want it to do, which in this case is drilling into stone. Is my drill broken or am I misunderstanding how it's supposed to work? Will its behavior change with the auxiliary handle mounted as you have done here? I haven't tried that yet. My supposedly carbide-tipped masonry-concrete-and-stone drill bit isn't doing much good, either. Need to drill four holes an inch deep, and have been blowing my brains out just to get a quarter inch deep in one hole. Please advise. I think I bought this thing used somewhere so I probably have no recourse to return it anywhere.
Yes, there should be a "hammer" action. If you're using the correct masonry bit, you should be able to make those holes no problem. This exact hammer drill is on sale at Harbor Freight now for $10.97.
