The Milwaukee 1-3/4 in. SDS-Max Rotary Hammer has a powerful 15 Amp Motor capable of delivering 8.1 ft./lbs. of impact energy for the most demanding applications. The AUTOSTOP E-Clutch prevents over-rotation of the tool in case of tool lock up giving users a more controlled experience while using the corded rotary hammer drill. The variable speed dial allows users to set the optimal speed per application while 2 modes, Rotary Hammer and Hammer Only, allow easy transitions between drilling large holes or chipping applications. When chipping, a lock-on button allows users to chip without constantly pulling the trigger. Built-in Advanced AVS (Anti-Vibration System) minimizes the vibration users feel while using the rotary hammer drill. Includes a free 13 Amp 5 in. Small Angle Grinder With Dial Speed (6117-33D). The 13 Amp small angle grinder from Milwaukee maintains speed under load to power through tough jobs. Undeterred by industrial-grade materials, this 5 in. grinder spins up to 11,000 RPM with enhanced circuitry to prevent overloading or overheating.

This tool is a heavy duty commercial grade rotary hammer. You can use it to drill in concrete or block and use it as a chipping hammer with multiple different bits. This tool is fairly heavy at 23lbs but that weight can help when drill downwards. If you are drilling horizontally it can be a bit of a bear. All in all this is another great tool from milwaukee.

This is a product that I use often and the quality of Milwaukee makes me come back to it and Home Depot is one of the few places in the area we can get it, but the size I bought is not sold in the stores and we had to go on line to get it. Delivery was timely

The 13 amp is a little beast; just wish it had the paddle trigger like the 11 amp

This drill has done every job I’ve asked it. I use it mostly for sculpting rock – diamond blades, carbide rock bits…it works perfectly and the variable speed is essential.

Just what I was looking for. I’m making a concrete counter top for our outdoor grill area and I needed a grinder with either variable or multiple speed settings to polish it. This Milwaukee grinder is absolutely perfect for me. With 6 speed settings, you don’t have to guess or “paddle” the trigger, hoping to keep it around the same speed. Just set it to the desired speed setting and turn it on. I couldn’t be happier. It has plenty of power and doesn’t bog down at all. I would highly recommend to anyone who’s in the market for a good grinder at a decent price.

Okay. Since when did Milwaukee start producing their tools in … CHINA. I paid $150 for something make in China! If I wanted China build tools, I would just run down to Harbor China or China Freight. I can’t remember which. I bought a Milwaukee variable speed grinder 22 years ago and finally the brushes and switch are going bad. However, I really needed an angle grinder while my old good friend is being repaired. And there it was … right on the side of the grinder … made in China! How sad. I will say that while I was using it, the body seem to get pretty warm. My old friend didn’t seem to get warm. So this is day one of using it. I will update in a month to see how it is going.

This is a big boy toy/tool. First of all be advised this tool uses “sds max ” type bits. Yes you can by an adapter for spline-sds-sds+ to max, proceed with caution though. See the pic. that shows the diameter difference of an sds+ compared to sds max. This tool has a lot of features, check the HD page for this model # 5546-21, scroll down to “info and guides” and click use and care manual. This will give you a good idea of what this baby can do. Also use the included grease, they give it to you for a reason, think friction and heat. Don’t use water as a cooling mechanism, it will just gum things up, use a shop vac. if necessary and a mask with safety glasses. The max is heavy, 20+ lbs. which is nice when you are drilling down, or chipping, let the tool do the work, moderate force works best with Anti-Vibration System. All the features make this nice to use ,but it will wear you out. If you do have to use this with an extension cord, check the specs, long distant means a voltage drop, which could lead to motor failure. Clean and maintain this tool and will last for years. There is not much this tool can’t do. The only thing that surprised me was why they didn’t include the Depth Gauge Rod. Not a deal breaker though.

This drill saves me lots of time. I drill about 20 3/4 x 7″ a day this drill does it twice as fast as my old drill that was the same size.

I do occasional drilling into masonry, mostly for installing Tapcons, and in the past have attempted to use a regular drill. I have learned over time that a hammer drill is really necessary to make drilling into concrete reasonable, and have long considered getting a hammer drill for these occasional applications. I also am in the early stages of planning a project to partially finish my unfinished basement, so I wanted to get a hammer drill that was of high quality and on the heavier duty side.This drill is top-notch for quality and durability. Note that this is a very large tool and rather heavy. I was concerned that this tool was going to be a beast when turned on: this certainly is not the case, as it is much quieter than I was expecting and extremely smooth to use. However, it did have a lot of power and makes drilling into concrete very easy when set to the hammer drill mode. There are also two other modes, including one that is for chiseling. I have not yet tried this feature (other than setting the tool to chisel to see how it acts), but it will come in handy as I am considering some exterior work that will involve chiseling concrete. Selecting these modes is very smooth and easy. Again pleasantly surprised that such a powerful tool runs so smoothly.The one major snag I had in starting with this tool was learning the difference between SDS, SDS-plus, and SDS-Max bits. I had SDS bits but it took me a while to figure out why I could not get these bits to fit: I later learned that these three bits are incompatible with one another. This was entirely my mistake, as I am used to the adjustable chucks on regular drills. Therefore, be sure that any bit you purchase for this tool is a SDS-MAX bit.I look forward to using this tool more. I’m really becoming a fan of Milwaukee tools, the quality is top-notch and they feel quite durable.

Great features with the variable speed control as well as the vibration dampening handle. Quite possibly the best built, best grinder for its size on the market. Very impressed.

This Combination hammer drill is loaded with practical features. All of them seem to be well thought out, easy to activate, and use. The quality is stunning, no unfinished mating areas, all screws,bolts, nuts are tighten.Be surprised, not the case always. The quality control is in place and adhered too. This is no slouch, a real drill. The instructions are well executed. Packed extremely well. …………

I’ve been using SDS-Max rotary hammers for years and this Milwaukee 1-3/4 15A combination hammer is a dream to use. The 15A motor hits hard with 8.1 ft lbs of impact energy and drills easily through concrete with appropriate drill bits, and can be used to chip concrete and other similar type of cementitious materials. It drove three ground rods through clay soil easily with a ground rod driver just last week. I like how it has a variable speed dial, the e-clutch for safety and an antivibration system to protect the user against tool vibration especially during extended use. I can personally attest that long term chipping can leave your hands and arms feeling numb and terrible. AVS systems help reduce it. Overall this is a great standard-sized sds-max rotary hammer loaded with features for a wide variety of tasks. Whether you are drilling holes in concrete, chipping concrete, chiseling up flooring including tile and vinyl, digging hard clay with a spade, driving ground rods or other similar tasks, this is a highly professional tool for everyday use even in commercial settings. If you need it you won’t regret getting it.

I have been a big fan of Milwaukee tools for about 35 years, it started with my Heavy-Duty SAWZALL (1 photo). they have been making heavy duty, professional grade power tools for a long time. this combination hammer is another example of heavy duty. it is heavy, solid and powerful, WOW. it is called a combination hammer and i am sure it will do a great job at coring but in hammer only mode, it is more like small jack hammer. i love it!!!

Little more heavier than a Makita grinder, but after a couple of weeks of heavy use on granite work it’s been working pretty good and solid.

This Milwaukee 15 AMP 1-3/4 IN. SDS-MAX CORDED COMBINATION HAMMER DRILL WITH E-CLUTCH is THE best heavy duty Hammer Drill driver I have ever used. It has a 15 Amp motor, and over 8 foot-pounds impact, yet the e-clutch and Anti-Vibration system stops white knuckles. The rotary hammer option or hammer only allows specific uses, without having to hang onto the trigger. Variable speed allows correct choice of rotary speeds. The big chuck takes industrial bits. All in all a durable, easy to use and the best hammer drill anyone could want.

This is a good product. But as a woman, it is heavy. The multi speed is a plus. But the online description says it has grinder attachment included, but small print on box says not included. The grinder attachment is not included. But I think this should be a good investment.
