Pistol Grip Drill Einhell TE-CD 18/48 Li-i 1500 RPM 1.5 kg

The Einhell TE-CD 18/48 Li-i (2x2.0Ah) cordless impact drill driver is a compact pistol-grip tool designed for drilling and screwdriving in demanding materials. Part of the Power X-Change system, it is supplied with two 2.0 Ah lithium-ion batteries and a charger. The tool offers an impact drilling function for masonry work, two-speed gearing for powerful drilling and screwdriving, and electronic speed control for precise adaptation to different materials. Ergonomic soft-grip surfaces and an integrated LED light improve handling and visibility on refurbishment and renovation jobs.

Advantages

The cordless impact drill driver delivers focused impact power for drilling into stone and brick while remaining lightweight at approximately 1.5 kg. Using the interchangeable PXC lithium-ion batteries ensures low self-discharge and compatibility across the Power X-Change family. Two-speed gearing and electronic speed control provide application flexibility, and the soft-grip design enhances comfort and control. An integrated LED illuminates the work area for better accuracy in low-light conditions.

Suitable for

• Drilling into masonry (stone, brick) and concrete up to small depths

How to use

Fit a charged 2.0 Ah PXC battery into the drill and select the appropriate mode (impact or standard drilling) depending on the material. Choose the lower gear for higher torque when screwdriving or drilling bigger holes, and the higher gear for faster drilling in softer materials. Use electronic speed control to set the ideal drilling speed for the selected drill bit and material. For masonry, engage the impact function and apply steady pressure; for screwdriving, reduce speed near the end to avoid overdriving screws. Switch off and remove the battery before changing bits or performing maintenance.

Recommendations

For best results when drilling into stone or brick, use appropriately rated masonry bits and start with a small pilot hole if needed. Keep both PXC batteries charged and store them in a cool, dry place to preserve battery life. Wear suitable personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and dust mask when working with masonry and concrete.
