Broke on First Use, Image not Accurate [Posted on 2007-09-14]
I used this product once to drive a 5/8", 8-foot ground rod. The image shown with the product indicates a single shaft tapering into a flared tube. This is not how the tool is constructed. Instead it is two separate pieces, a tube and a shaft. As you drive the ground rod, the tube slides up the shaft, until the edge of the tube and the business end of the shaft are evened up. The tool is worthless at this point because it doesn't stay over the top of the rod, it just bounces around on the end of the rod you're trying to drive. Look elsewhere, this is not up to the Dewalt standard.
True - Photo not accurate [Posted on 2008-03-27]
I just received this ground rod driver and it is true - the shaft/hammer has a sleeve pressed on the end rather than being one piece like the photo shows. However, I figured the price was right and that I'll tack it in place before I put it to use. We'll see how long it lasts.
