According to Metabo, the professional user can enjoy the full benefit of the compact design by removing the drill chuck to expose a magnetic female hexagon socket in the spindle end to take screwdriver bits. The drill/screwdriver then measures only 122mm, and the user can work in even the tighest of spaces.
The design is truly compact in every sense, weighing in at just 800g. Professionals can quickly change from driving in screws and drilling with the PowerMaxx BS Quick. They can change from bit retainer, drill chuck and quick change screw-type angle attachment in an instant, which is also helpful in smaller spaces.
Despite significantly reducing the weight and size of the 10.8V drill/screwdrivers, the Nuertingen power tool manufacturer has increased the battery pack capacity from 1.5Ah to 2.0Ah. A useful battery capacity display in the casing of the machine provides an indication of the remaining run time the professional has at their disposal. Whether for woodworking, constructing furniture and kitchens, in the workshop, for interior construction or as assembly screwdriver in the industrial sector, the universal PowerMaxx BS is a compact problem solver ideal for light and medium screwdriving and drilling applications. The tool can drill up to 10mm diameter in steel and up to 22mm diameter in wood.
The angle attachment for the PowerMaxx BS Quick has the smallest corner measurement on the market, and can be quickly attached and removed. This permits screwdriving and drilling in tight spaces and corners. Another practical detail is the handy belt hook that can be fixed either on the right or left side without tools, allowing the professional to hook his machine to the belt or trouser pocket. An LED brings light to dark corners and provides targeted illumination of the area where the craftsman screws or drills.
The PowerMaxx BS and the PowerMaxx BS Quick are available without battery pack and charger in a carton box or case as a set with two 2.0Ah battery packs and charger. Additionally, there is the Quick-Pro version in a case or MetaLoc, which Metabo supplies with a 4.0Ah battery pack and the screw-type angle attachment in addition to the charger and a 2.0Ah battery pack.
