  • Expensive

The drill features a 20 Amp Milwaukee 4096 Motor with a 450 rpm or 900 rpm operating speed. This unit comes with a 1″ to 14″ bit capacity as standard but can drill holes up to 16″ when an extra spacer is used.

The drill rig uses a robust 2-7/8″ square column to reduce flexing and ensure a more accurate cut. It is 42 inches long to allow for longer bits. The base features reinforcing to aid rigidity as well. The aid servicing the adjustable brass shims inside the carriage are replaceable. They help to ensure a smooth travel and precise head alignment.

The whole unit, drill plus the standard rig, weighs in at a hefty 60 lbs.

Husqvarna makes quality power tools and the DS800 is a nice core drill. This model comes with the anchored rig but you can also buy it with the combo base and vacuum assembly.
