For this, use a mixing tool bit with either smooth or hex shanks. The TE 76-ATC may also be used to mix non-flammable materials such as grout. Wood and metal work require wood and metal drill bits with hex or smooth shanks. Use flat, shaped and pointed chisel bits when working with natural stone, concrete and masonry. Breach bits, percussion core bits and hammer drill bits are used when drilling into masonry, concrete and natural stones. Making use of different drill bits and chisels provides a variety of uses for the TE 76-ATC. The TE 76-ATC has drilling and chiseling modes along with a quick-change chuck and 24-way chisel-position adjustment. The gearing and hammering mechanism requires oil lubrication. The TE 76-ATC is also equipped with a grip and side handle with vibration absorption, a side handle able to pivot and a service indicator with a light signal.

The selector switch allows for options for either full power or half power. Equipped with a mechanical torque-limiting clutch and a lockable control switch in chiseling mode, this rotary hammer possesses infinite variable speed with electronic regulation that is independent of load. The TE 76-ATC falls into the electrical protection class I, which is grounded, according to Hilti USA. Its fit and finish make it a pretty nice tool to work with, even if we did wish for a bit more torque. As it stands, this Hilti 22V hammer drill is a deceptively light tool. The TE 76-ATC measures 20 inches long by 11 1/3 inches high and 4 1/2 inches wide. The 18V Hilti SF 6H-A22 Hammer Drill sits in the medium-duty camp, right in that sweet spot that balances power and size so well. Chiseling performance in the same type of concrete is just over 35 cubic inches per minute. Typical drilling performance in medium-hard concrete at 3/4 inch diameter equals 14.2 inches per minute 1 inch diameter is approximately 11 1/2 inches per minute, and at 1 1/4 inch diameter a little over 7 inches per minute. Running on a frequency of 50 to 60 hertz, the speed of this rotary hammer is approximately 0 to 200 revolutions per minute. The rated power of the unit equals 1300 watts, with a nominal voltage of 120 volts and nominal current input of 13.0 amps.

I don't think the average DIYer really needs to make that kind of investment but if you do more power to you and enjoy it.The TE 76-ATC is designed for commercial and professional use. I have used Hilti in the past and they are comfortable to run especially for long periods. If you are consitantly going to be drilling 3" to 4" holes through foundation walls with a coring bit or drilling and chipping concrete slabs on a regular basis the Hilti is the way to go. I use these for proffesional use and have had both for while now. I have a smaller Makita for lighter situations which utilizes a 1/2" chuck instead of the SDS max. If I have a lot of holes to drill like that or apearance is critical I will rent a larger more capable drill and run a coring bit.

If I have to drill the occasional larger than 1" hole I simply use a smaller diameter bit and drill several smaller holes then knock out the center.

The drill has a 1" bit capacity and will do light chipping as well. I use a Dewalt D-handle rotary drill (sorry don't know the model # and don't feel like digging through the trailer for it this morning) for 80% of my masonry drilling and/or demolition activity. What is your intended use for the drill? How often do you anticipate using it? Is renting more efficient than buying? You need to ask yourself these questions then choose a drill based on the answer.
