(1/24) > >>

PIKE FISHERMAN:
Strikemaster 40v question. I just ran my new SM 40v 10” lite for the first time. The auger would cut out / quit at the bottom of the hole. No pressure, light, medium. Didn’t matter. Normal? Anyone else experience this or have a different experience!! Watched a bunch of videos and they didn’t seem to cut out.

Here’s the footage if anyone is interested in seeing how it cut!


Ion footage!!

Anomaly:
Never had an issue. Hunh!!! Three years so far. One time I forgot to charge it. After about 20 holes in 16+", I had to put in the back up battery. I've punched around 50 holes in deep ice. Bogs down a little if ya get slushed and don't pull it while drilling

dr cusk:
Maybe your hand came off the safety switch as you got to the bottom?  I haven’t had that stall out issue with mine but have had some instances where it wouldn’t kick on as the safety wasn’t all the way depressed….usually when it’s zero and I can’t feel my fingers….oh and get ready for the 10” hole haters to jump on you…haha!!

woodchip:
The wider those holes the heavier and more resistents it puts on Battery.!!!!

nbourque:
How come I haven’t heard about the 10” lite til now?
