7/32 for the plastic anchors and 7/64 for the screw into wood without the plastic anchor. The directions are on the box.

I would suggest taking the one screw you have to your local hardware store (Lowes, Home Depot, True Value, ACE) and find a matching screw in the hardware aisle. Make sure you roughly match the head shape (tapered, flush mount I think) diameter and length of the shaft; this will be important if you are using the same drywall anchors.

Bosch sells a set of SDS plus bits. Any SDS Plus will fit the hammer. As to whether a 1/2 hole is appropriate really depends on the size of anchor you plan to use. A 1/2" hole for an anchor sounds like a very large anchor.

There are 4 types of masonry bits out there:1) - "simple" - round shank of various diameters - what you'd use in a regular drill chuck. OK for a few small holes2) splined bits - the "old" American standard. Think Hilti and similar brand tools.3) SDS, or SDS-Plus - the newer international standard - the default for what you'll find outside the US, and also now supported by American toolmakers. 4) SDS-Max - a heavier duty version of SDS - larger diameter shanks (typically over 1-1/8" dia hole size).If your tool says SDS - then option #3 should fit all brands. If SDS-Max - then you'll need option #4. There are 4 types of masonry bits out there:1) - "simple" - round shank of various diameters - what you'd use in a regular drill chuck.

I went with metal anchor bolts. they were a 3/4 inch in length. The head was about 1/4 wide. I had them in the house but the hardware has a huge selection and they are super cheap.

The bolt (screw) circle is 11 5/8" so the hole diameter should be about 1/2" smaller than that or NO BIGGER THAN 11 1/8" otherwise the screws will have nothing to screw into. You can probably get away with using only 4 screws at 12-3-6 and 9 O'Clock. That's what I did.

There are several sheetrock anchors on the market that support up 75lbs per anchor. Put 3 on top and three on the bottom and you have 450lbs of support. Use the spiral auger metal anchors. You can find them at home depot.

Get 1/2" masonry bit. Drill holes, be sure to blow debris out of hole, drop in 1/2" masonry anchors, put nut on bolt, drive bolt into hole until a little more than the nut is sticking out, tighten it up snug, (if you don't get it tight enough, bolt might fall down into hole when you take the nut back off, and then you will need a strong magnet to get it back out) unscrew the nut from the anchor, put strong tie over exposed anchor bolts then tighten down the nuts.

If you buy the bit adapter you can use standard small shank SDS bits. This unit is made for the larger shank bits. I have the adapter but I also use both sizes if bits. It is a great hammer drill. I am a General Contractor and it is a great addition to our work.

I have 2 attached to the brick in front of our house and two on our wooden deck rail. I used a hammer drill with masonry bit to drill pilot holes (instructions show how big holes need to be) and inserted supplied anchors and screws. For wood the supplied screws go straight in and you will not need to use the blue anchors. Hope this helps.

That depends on the size of the wood screw you are using. I believe I used 1/4" diam screws so drill was about 3/16"

I think u need a 3/8 drill. Not sure how many kind of drills there are. But 3/8 I think is standard. So in most cases I'd say you are probably safe with this set

I moounted this on a block wall. The included anchors i believe should be fine for brick. Obviously proper drilling tecnique and not over tightening is imperative. It should attach fine.

when you drill or nail the anchors make sure they're even and they're about 33in apart. Also make sure that the short bend is facing upwards towards you (like an upside-down chair). The place the board on it. the anchors will slip in between the border and the actual board

Use the size that comes with it and nothing else. I ruined my old one by using one that was a different size. Mine came with plenty of bits so I just stick with mine now. Oh BTY I LOVE MY DRILL!!! :-) It's wonderful!

The bolt pattern on the anchor kit for this system is 7"x7". Thanks! Silverback

This drill will use any standard drill bit. Also, there are no bits included with the drill.
