Grcs drill driver

[zmann]

what drill is everyone using in the Grcs? We have had the bit for a long time and never really used it. I had a job where nearly every it had to be lifted up so we took the bit. Our gas Stihl didn't do a very good job. When it stopped cranking we were able to continue to crank easily with the hand crank and one arm. And at first I was worried that we would rip the tree apart if we weren't careful.

I think it is a Milwaukie drill but the folks that have them will chime in. Just give it some time.

Milwaukee Super Hawg. Accept no substitute. I've been using a corded version. Milwaukee has now come out with an 18V Lithium Battery powered version. I haven't tried that one yet, but the corded version is perfect when paired with the GRCS. Use it in low speed forward to pre-tension. The clutch will slip when it's fully tensioned. Then slip it into low speed reverse to double the lifting power.....like a boss!
