The Bosch model PS20 Cordless Drill/Driver
has a collet that accepts only standard 1/4"
hexagonal shank accessories with power
groove. The low RPM capability of this model is
not a deficiency. On the contrary, low speed
means high torque and high torque is a definite
plus for efficient drilling and driving. The low
speed also provides more control to prevent
stripout of the screw and damage to the work
surface.
INSERTING AND REMOVING ACCESSORIES
To avoid loss of control,
