Abstract

A power tool includes a housing, a motor, a spindle, a handle holder and an auxiliary handle. The housing includes a motor housing portion, a drive housing, and a mounting portion between the motor housing portion and the drive housing. The motor is located within the motor housing portion. The spindle is configured to rotate about a rotational axis in response to torque received from the motor. The handle holder is coupled to the drive housing and defines a first mounting point, and the mounting portion defines a second mounting point. The auxiliary handle is selectively attachable to each of the first and second mounting points, and the first mounting point is located at a first position along the rotational axis, and the second mounting point is located at a second position offset from the first position in a direction along the rotational axis.
