Hello!
I've bought my first power tool - a Bosch 18V cordless drill with hammer function. I bought the extra masonry attachments so I can hang a sign on my solid exterior house wall. But I've just tried using it on the hammer function setting, and it didn't actually penetrate the render/solid block. It just spun forever -barely making a dent.
I watched a million youtube videos and even tried making a pilot hole first. I tried gently guiding it, I tried pushing in with all my strength. No joy. It didn't feel like it was actually 'hammering' at all, but I've never actually used power tools before so I don't know if it's broken or if I'm just a bit dim.
Any help?
