    I was tasked with starting one of these that had sat for a long time. We used it for pounding 3 foot metal posts in the ground. It was so heavy and awkward that most of the time the guys opted to use a sledge hammer. I always had respect for these old pieces that were built when men were happy to have them.

    When i did my conscription as a conscientious objector in 1980 ("lumpen" and "vapenvägrare" are the much easier Swedish words) we used the Cobra to get into bomb shelters. Of course not real ones, they were better left intact for obvious reasons!🙂 But we had concrete slabs with the same thickness and rebar. We also had a course where we learned how to service the machine. After all these years I remembered surprisingly much of the construction! That is considering that fourty odd years have passed and it was a one day course. I haven't touched one since 1980. Of course the ones we used were considerably newer and both improved and lighter. It was still a proper beast, though. Tack för videon!

    If at 30f below, you started these drills, in a warm tent, as soon as you carried it out of the tent, into the cold, this drill will quit running.
