No workshop or tool box is complete without at least one dependable and powerful cordless drill/driver. Like most of Skil’s drill/drivers, the 2887-07 3/8-inch keyless chuck drill/driver is just that. The feature that distinguishes it from the rest of the Skill drills is the built-in work light located on the battery compartment This is a useful feature for illuminating the working surface in narrow, closed-in or darkened areas. It has a two-speed gear box that allows the user to shift from high speed drilling to high torque for driving screws or bolts. The gear change lever is located on top of the tool housing above the two-finger variable speed trigger. The forward/reverse switch on this drill is located just above the trigger so that you can switch direction without changing your grip, and there is a forward/reverse indicator light on top of the housing. There is a built-in bit storage compartment on top of the housing. Especially handy is the built-in bit index No more guessing at which bit is needed for which screw. Simply place a screw in the index and you’ll find the bit size you will need. The 2887-05 also comes with a removable side handle for added two-fisted leverage when drilling or driving on high torque.

The drill/driver is powered by an 18-volt Ni-Cad battery which gives the user superior power and extended battery life. The battery slides easily onto the bottom of the tool giving the drill/driver optimum balance. Included with the 2587-05 is an extra battery, a one-hour charger and carrying case.–C. Dwight Barnett
