are you supposed to hear and feel the hammer action when you set the drill to 'hammer' ? I get only a regular drill action on both settings -

You will only feel and hear the hammering action when you begin to drill into the cement or masonary material you are working with.

Both settings sound identical until you press the drill into the cement material on the hammer setting. It is only at this moment that the sound of the hammer setting takes on a different sound from the regular drill setting. Be sure to use masonry bits when using the hammer setting.

Once you start drilling into the material, you will feel the hammering. Don't push too hard though or you might bend your bit.

When you are using a hammer drill, the drill mode only drills, but the driver mode hammers (like a jack hammer). Most hammer drills have a drill driver mode where it both hammers and drills for drilling in masonry.

Almost all Dewalt battery powered drills( and others) will sound off 1 or 2 knocks when stopping due to the braking power of the DC motor. let off of the trigger smoe slowly and the knock should disapear. If not you may wish to exchange it if it is new. or have it checked if under warrenty.

It depends... is your hammer drill an sds model? or do you have the adapter for sds bits?

If you have it in Drill mode, (selection on the outer ring), it does not hammer.

The hammer does move but it is not fully function. Pulling the trigger does not move it and it does not lock back. Thanks Pyramyd air Team

It does have a really touchy trigger but can start out pretty slow. It starts a lot slower than my similar Dewalt. You just have to be careful because there is a fine line between being just right & making a mess... (btw I've had this drill over 2 years now & use it hard everyday. Not 1 problem. )Good luck

Yes.Switches between hammer drill, regular drill, and screwdriver (stops turning when moderate tension encountered) modes

Yes, but that feature on a cordless drill is mostly a marketing ploy. Hammer is the highest torque setting. Even on the Milwaukee 28V drill, which is in every way a superior tool, the hammer drill setting generates more noise than impact. Its effect is not much different from exceding the torque setting.

Yes it can be set hammer or regular (this feature is standard in hammer drills)

Yes.. There is a slide switch on the top of the drill to select drill or hammer drill and icon indicating what mode of function you are in...

Try to click on and off switch on the front of the drill or take off and then put back the bit.that might help.if not I'm afraid you got to return it;)

I must also add that you should not press hard on the drill while drilling because it'll only pressure the drill. Take your time and use it.

It's a "Hammer Drill" it's supposed to hammer while drilling. Its just the way it is.

Dear Tai, When we bought the drill, it was a big surprise to receive the additional Hammer Bit set. That item was not listed as included.I believe the number is HCST006 for the bit set. Hope this was helpful.

As all impact drivers, it makes a rattling noise as it drives nuts, bolts or screws in or out. If the item does not move it is probably rusted in place or bonded in some way that defeats the drill's ability to move it.
