Why does the drill still rotate when in the hammering mode?

Because it is a "Hammerdrill"; it is a drill with an added hammering function so that it will drill through surfaces like ceramic tile, however you must buy the correct drill bit to carry out that function, it is diamond coated and can withstand the forces generated by the added hammering forces. If you just need a hammer, buy a hammer, but drills by definition need to rotate whether the added hammering capabilities are engaged or not.

So the drill bit does not hit material in only in one spot. The drill 1st spins and then hammers when pushed against material.

I believe the "hammer" is to help break up and force the bit through tough materials like concrete etc. while the bit is rotating. Its still a drill with a hammer action to assist.

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

Consider it a miniature "Jack Hammer". It's also considered a "power chisel." Youtube <Jack Hammer> and you can see for yourself how concrete is broken up. That jack hammering is almost exactly how a "HammerDrill" functions. Before the HammerDrill was invented, a worker would use a "Star" chisel by hitting the chisel with a hammer then turn it a little and repeat the hammering . Youtube <How To Chisel Concrete>.

Yes, it has a selector switch for either rotation or hammer. I purchased this tool to chip up ceramic tile with an 1.5" tile SDS bit and it done a fantastic job.

Perhaps you are thinking the bearings should not rotate. The position of the bearings are locked in place to guide the blade however the bearings themselves DO rotate when the blade is moving.

I had the same problem. What I found was it has to be perfectly straight in line and go slow. If I went to fast I had to use another drill to drive the screws all the way in. Also the drill bit does not always stay locked into place on mine.

I have both a Black & Decker & a Dewalt drill. They both manually close on the bit with a hand twist, no chuck key needed. I'm not sure why a Dewalt bit would be any different than any other bit.

The end that you put in to the drill snaps into the metal part of the bit holder, if the other end does not fit in the bit holder, swing it the other way, it won't fit perfectly in the holder but it will still hold.

This drill is not variable speed, but the trigger can be partially depressed in order to have a slower speed. This drill does have reverse, which is not common on some 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...

The Drill has 3 settings: "Full torque Hammer Drill, Full torque Standard Drill, and "Torque limited Screw drive mode" where you set the torque you want (Note that since this drill is brushless, it regulates torque electronically according your "clutch" setting, not an actual click-click mechanical clutch like older models). The Impact driver is "impact only" (of course...)

The first thing I would recommend you doing is looking a video up on YouTube, but I'll also try to help you out! Pick up and hold the drill in the palm of your hand, you'll then notice that if you press the bit against a surface you can spin the drill and it becomes "free-moving". By applying pressure and spinning the drill with your fingers, it'll start drilling through the material. Hope that helps!

No, definitely not.The DeWalt DWD525K hammer drill is a rotary drill with an axial hammer action, so the impact is along the line of the drill bit, at approx 2 beats per rotation.These sockets are intended for an impact wrench, which has impacts in the rotational direction, but will often be stationary.You can drive screws with a drill because screws normally only use very low level of torque, but nuts (that need impact function) have much higher level of torque.

I'm not sure I understand your question. When it was time to put the handle back on, I positioned it so that it was facing the right direction, then turned the base to tighten. If you are referring to the tool - it's not threaded and works both ways.

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.

Are you turning in the counter rotation direction? Ie the screw is desighned to tighten the blade when it rotates

It has to do with the ION Battery. To put it simply the battery maintains a higher power level to a certain point, than it turns off. It is designed that way so the battery will not drag down the tool you are using, So you'll have higher torque while doing your job and it is easier on your equipment. I hope this answers your question.

The difference is in the direction of the impact force. The hammer drill exerts the force along the bit as it hits the material being drilled, while the impact driver exerts the force perpendicular to the bit (same direction of the rotation).

The drill is chuckless. Simply hold the end and allow the drill to tighten. Put it in reverse to remove bits. Best cordless drill I ever had. I has tremendous torque.
