Function of an SDS when it break through if you are pushing the
drill, think about how an SDS drill works... Once you get close to
full depth stop pushing and take it easy, no gurantee that you won't
get some spalling but it shoud be much reduced.


+1 or even change from an SDS to a normal drill, only using steady
force.
