My new levelers

Oh, heck, it's a 30 by 14 foot slab, with piers cast in place under the slab.  It won't fit into my Dakota.  But thanks for the offer.  

Hey Glue Guy, I have to drill 5 holes for expansion bolts for post holddowns on our patio.  Can I borrow that cool hammer drill?  

Originally posted by TheBum I've burned up two cordless drills on stabilizers. Well, one's motor burned up and the other's clutch burned up. I recently bought what Ryobi calls a Pulse Wrench. It's less violent than an impact wrench, so I wonder if it would have worked with the BAL. I've tried it out on the stabilizers and it seemed to work OK, but time will tell.

Ryobi quality has declined the last few years. I've never had a drill "burn up" on me, and a few I have had for a really long time. I had a Makita that lasted for 15-20 years. Finally had to part with it when I could no longer get a replacement battery (the really old 9V ones). After that I got a Hilti. Great tool. That sucker is over 10 years old and still going strong. When we sold our business, the Hilti went with the tools. I know that drill is still spinning, drilling, and hammering. Now semi-retired, I got a Milwaukee a little over 3 years ago. This is a nice tool too, and the new Lithium batteries hang in there extra long.

I use my cordless drill with the clutch set fairly low, around 2 or 3 on a scale of 1-15. I go around a couple times to get all the stabilizers snugged up. I believe you don't need much more than that.
