dwain Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 The FUEL Impact + BL compact drill is not far behind, but the DCD796 is just a monster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With an adapter it would be perfect if the goal was to shear the heads off screws all day though I meant the 2753 thanks for the info though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigh9916 Posted August 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Quick question for 887 owners , does the 887 which I've bought take 25mm bits straight in the chuck ? I've seen some videos that look like people are using small bits straight in it and I didn't want to try incase I'm mistaken and they get stuck which I don't think they will as it does eject the bit holder so I'm sure it will pop them out anyway ?

Jronman Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 may I suggest getting the dcf887 instead of the dcf886 because I feel like the 3 speed functionality is a handy feature. you got mode 3 which is max torque, ipm's, and rpm's for the toughest of fasteners but you also got mode 2 and 1 for when you either don't need the max settings or when you need to be more careful on certain fasteners or materials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 I find the 887 chuck release to be superior to the 886 I have as well, it will literally throw the bit out without any resistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the single hand bit release, now if more manufacturers would get the hint already!!!!!Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
77Ford Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 There are so many upgrades with the DCF 887 you would be doing yourself a disservice if you bought the 886Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigh9916 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Just an update on the 887 I bought , when I received it I commented on here how it wasn't as good as I thought it would be and how it was jumping out of screws as it wasn't impacting early enough and was such high rpm it didn't have the best control ! Well after 3 weeks of work it's changed totally it has bedded itself in and is a lot better , my work mate said his brushless makita was the same it took some bedding in ! So overall I'm now happier with it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the snot beat out of some of those for a decade and never a single chuck fail. Sometimes the bit would jam and you need to impact in reverse to break the bit free but the chuck release mechanism never jammed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
