PABS 16 B3 cordless drill
The PABS 16 B3 is a cordless drill distributed under the Parkside brand.
The machine has a brushed electric motor that is powered by a Max 16.0V battery.
The weight of the machine was not found online or in the user manual.
This machine appears to be the successor of the PABS 16 B2. It looks similar, but the PABS 16 B3 has a work light at the base of the handle instead of above the trigger which the older models have.
Availability
In December 2021 the machine not was listed on the German distributor's website, but it does list a replacement battery specifically for this model.
There are also various blog posts and videos about this model. But online Lidl stores do not sell it. For this reason this machine is marked as discontinued here.
Exterior
The machine has a dark green plastic housing with black rubberized parts around the handle and back.
he PABS 16 B3 has a very bumpy exterior with thick black rubber bulges all over giving it a very rugged appearance.
On the bottom of the handle a battery attaches by sliding in from the front. Right above the battery is a white LED that is angled upwards to illuminate the working area.
On front of the handle is a red trigger switch with a black rubberized front. Above it is a push button to reverse the direction of rotation on each side.
On the left side of the housing is an integrated magnetic bit holder. Below that is a battery charge indicator consisting out of a green, yellow and red LED.
On top of the housing is a red gear selector switch.
At the front is a red clutch setting ring with a drill setting that disables the clutch. At the front is a black plastic chuck with a maximum opening of 10 mm.
Operation
The machine works as a standard drill. It is activated by pressing the variable speed trigger switch. The push button above it can be used to reverse the turning direction or as a trigger lock when the button is centered.
The resistance of the clutch is adjusted with the ring behind the chuck.
The gear can be selected with the sliding switch on top of the body while it is not turning. ,8ikl jbujik, j jnm, jnm
