Carpet removal with Multi-Function tool from Harbor Freight

I thought I had read something in the past on this, but did a couple of searches and couldnt find anything.

Anybody used a multi-function tool or whatever tis called. Can it be used to remove carpet. If so, which attachment and etc. I bought one but havent taken it out of the box.

If so, which attachment etc, somebody give me the skinny.

I found a carpet place here in Houston that can do the stitched edging on my carpet like it came from the factory, so I am thinking about riping the carpet out in the next week or two.

Thanks, Billy

Yes I did. I used the scrapper blade. It saves alot manual labor getting the carpet and old glue off.

I took it out of the box a few min ago. I noticed the scraper blade, looks like it might work. I stuck a blade on it and plugged it in............dang that sucker moves on high speed (I'm a big spender, I bought the varible speed, 10 bucks more).

I got a 21 foot boat, probably better get several extra blades, good excuse to go back to Harbor Freight.

Guess I better show my wife how to use it so I can watch her work while I drink beer...................I doubt if watching the wife work beer drinking plan works out will it. Bad plan, better get back to doing house work.

Thanks, Billy

I also went and got a extra blade too, I set my on about 6, works for me.

While your there they have spring clips on sale this month, the 2" are on sale for $.49 each. Perfect for keeping the carpet clamped on to the lids.
