Thank you for your feedback. Reading the above comments have inspired me to maybe take a card board box I can drop it in or a plastic bag.

I did a job in Saudi Arabia in a desert area. Needles to say, my drill fell on its side and sand got into the air vents. This reduced the torque. The motor also sparked and smoke came from it. I don’t know what kind of motor it had but the drill packed up on me. I have to go back for the deinstall. Does anyone have any tips to protect the drill? I thought about taping over the air vents but concerned that this could lead to over heating and burn out.
