Looking at this I'm guessing it does not have a variable chuck. What type of bits does it take?

SDS Plus shank bits... you will also see a "Jacobs" type chuck with an SDS Plus shank that allows use of any size bit but only for drilling... "Jacobs" type chucks will always loosen their hold on a bit when in hammer mode... always! I use this dril in working my gold mine both to loosen up dirt with rocks and in drilling rock for breaking. The drill pulls a 36" bit but in rock I have limited depth to 10 inches.

That's correct - it is a fixed chuck size. It only accepts SDS+ bits (Bosch, Hilti, DeWalt all manufacture these and you can get them from Amazon and most home improvement stores). The SDS+ design uses a common shaft size, regardless of the gauge of the bit.

The chuck size indicated in the description (1" in this case) is the max theoretical width of the drill bit you can use. as other have mentioned, SDS (which is also SDS plus) has a fixed size that actually fits into the drill regardless of the diameter of the business end of the bit. sds max is different and not directly interchangeable. basically, if you're drilling up to 1" holes, this is the one for you. if the hole needs to be wider, you'll need a more powerful drill with a larger size. you can also get converters to use a regular but, but you lose a lot of the magic of this type of tool.

The drill has a chuck that accepts SDS Plus shanked bits. It is not a key or key less style chuck most smaller drills have. The drill powers bits up to 1 ich in OD by name.

Great drill take any drill bit made for rotary hammer drill like dewalt or bosh

It has a Jacobs style chuck that goes down to zero size...I did chuck up a #60 drill bit, slightly over 1mm about the diameter of a paper clip with no problems, however with drill bits this small, this drill is too big, that small of a bit is better suited for the hand held tools as the Dremil style...

Mine did not come with a drill bit either. I paid $10 for one at a local hardware store.

yes anything with standard chuck should work if the chuck is 3/8 some larger bits might not fit!1/2 bits probably wont fit!

it say the bit is not included with this , so how can i get one or how can use it

No chuck comes with this. The bit that comes with the Right Angle at attachment can be pushed out from the back to allow to put in a new bit.

this is one of those "latch type" that requires the latch bits. They snap in....no screw type chuck. Don't use this very often but when I need it .....!

I do not know the technical term for it but it is a quick chuck for drills. It is used so it is like an impact driver, where you can change the bits quickly.

It will work with rapid-load (hex-shaft) drill bits, or you can get a rapid-load to chuck adapter to use "standard" round shafted bits in it.

It's very simple, you just hold the drill firmly in one hand and twist the end of the chuck in the other. Open wide enough to insert the size bit you need then twist in the other direction. The chuck will move very little while twisting.

The drill does not physically have a "keyless chuck", it is considered keyless because you do not need any key to change the bit. To change bit simply hold the front end of the drill with one hand slowly press the trigger with the other hand, if it tightens, then push in the green arrow behind the trigger and slowly press the trigger again; the drill will now open up, insert the bit, push in the arrow button again, hold the front end and slowly press the trigger the bit should tighten up and you are now ready to use the drill.

There is no bit driver on the tool. Unles you want to usr the plyers as a driver but it wont be very effective.

The "SDS" drills have a unique chuck and will only work with SDS bits. These bits will not work in a conventional chuck.

Yes, it does include a key for the chuck. I have an old, corded drill that has its own chuck key, but the key for my old drill is too large for the drill guide. I keep both chuck keys together so I know where to find them when I need them. The newer drills should have no problem. I was drilling with a 1/4" bit and had good results. Thanks, Darl

I have a standard household type cordless drill. It's 3/8 chuck. It didn't work, and so I either had to return it or buy a new drill. I didn't feel like buying a new drill. I returned it and I'll get something smaller. Unless you are sure you have a heavy-duty type drill, check it before you order this.

Hi Frank,They do not accept regular drill bits. There are bits available that can fit but have to have a special 1/4 inch "shank".I purchased a chuck adapter that has a 1/4 shank that fits perfectly. It works well for light drilling, and can be purchased on Amazon separately or in a kit (Bosch-CC2130) called "clic change". It also comes with a few bits.Hope this helps

This unit does not have a drill chuck. But it can use drill bits that have a 1/4" shank at the base of the drill.
