The product, in the report: Tool Shop1/2” 6.7 amp Hammer Drill
Purchased a Menards 1/2” 6.7 amp Hammer Drill product # 241-9825 SKU # 93495 98084 3. Used it the first time and it started smoking, and burned my hand, it also smelt like burning wires. I un-plugged drill and it continued to smoke, I had to hose it down to stop it from smoking. I was concerned that It might catch fire or cause damage to property. Very Hazardous tool !!!!!
