    Figure A

    If you have a project where you have to drill through tile, the hammer drill is the perfect tool to own.

    • Works on all hard materials, even granite.

    • But if you need to have less power to drill through tile, all you have to do is set the switch (figure A) to 30 percent, which produces less impact. At a lower setting the drill bit won't crack the tile.
