Can you use a bradpoint bit with this drill? And is that recommended by the manufacturer?

I don't see why not. The drill has adequate power and stability. As for manufacturer recommendations, you would need to contact Dewalt directly for their direction. You can just search for their website and contact them there.

Just checked brad point bits for my knowledge. I think you could if you set up a stop on the slide and keep the wheel well dressed. Same technique as i use for spade bits

No because the end of the bit that fits in the drill needs to be the exact size and shape of the slot on the drill. There is no way to adjust the size of the slot like on a standard drill.

Yes, those bits will work in this screwdriver. The screwdriver comes with a flathead screw bit and a phillipshead screw bit.No. This is a relatively low RPM screwdriver and is not intended for drilling. It may drill holes in thin soft wood with the second set of bits you identified, but I would not expect to have satisfactory performance since it is really a screwdriver, not an electric drill.

I would think so. I have a Black & Decker bit set and the drill has had no issues with using them.

After reading all the questions:: Thought to add:I just used this bit in my DeWalt 18v standard drill (NOT a hammer drill or a "driver") CORDLESS.It fit right in that "quick chuck" that comes on these common battery tools.Note: This would NOT fit in any 3/8" chuck tool...or, 1/4" for that matter.

It's not recommended that you use reg wood screws with this type of application. Generally because the screw itself, no matter the power of your drill, will most likely split through the hole you've made with the jig. You don't necessarily have to use Kreg specific pocket screws, but a pocket screw none the less, is definitely the best way to go.

Use the size that comes with it and nothing else. I ruined my old one by using one that was a different size. Mine came with plenty of bits so I just stick with mine now. Oh BTY I LOVE MY DRILL!!! :-) It's wonderful!

It has to be the same chuck size. Check the drill and the bit before purchase.

There was not bit included with the drill, so I cannot say. One should make sure that very small bits are available.

Don't abuse your high speed (low torque) tool with such a large bit. Use a drill for more power. They don't make an adapter to fit such a large shaft. (The Dremel chuck accessory fits perfectly and I recommend it but it doesn't fit larger than 1/8" either.)

Yes all these bits will work well with that quality drill. Don't think you will be disappointed.

Not very safely. The device is unbalanced and thus it would be incredibly difficult to hold the drill steady enough to have this drill effectively. A drill press would be the only safe way to use this bit.

Just checked it -- the smallest bit I had handy is 1/16" and the chuck on my PC600D is precise enough to hold that firmly centered...I also recall that I used this drill for a luggage-repair project requiring 1/8" bit -- and in my opinion -- with a bit of care, two-handed bracing of the drill, and the variable speed, small bits can be used without breaking them.

I have my drill in its box. I don't see anything regarding bits. It does talk about "Quick Connect System" I suggest you go to the Black and Decker site. Maybe they have this drill with the information you need. I do know that I much prefer an electric drill vs cordless drill.

I would recommend a non pilot pint bit it acts like a screw pulling the bit through material faster than the drill can spin it. Mad dog drill bits makes a good set for a little more cost

The drill has a chuck that accepts SDS Plus shanked bits. It is not a key or key less style chuck most smaller drills have. The drill powers bits up to 1 ich in OD by name.
