CXS question

[blakjak220]

I searched but couldn't find an answer....

Will the regular quick change chuck that has a 1/2" capacity fit the CXS or am I stuck with the 8mm one?

Thanks

Yes it does.

yes it fits, ive tested it myself.

Thanks guys... Any disadvantage that you've come across using the full-size chuck? I can't think of a down-side, which makes me wonder why they bothered making a whole different sized-chuck for this drill and not just including the regular one... Not that it would be that much of a problem, if ever.

It is much heavier and bigger than the one of the CXS. Nobody would buy a small drill with an oversized chuck.

Ahh ok... I haven't held each at the same time... But making it more balanced makes sense.

to use a drill bit that size in a small drill like the csx was something i couldnt see myself doing. they did good using a smaller size light weight chuck.

I just wish the smaller chuck would ratchet like the big one...
