Try to put it on the lowest torque and if it slips when wanted, then add a little more torque and check to make sure it slips. Continue at each torque setting and usually works again at full torque. Usually happens when left on the same torque all the time. This kind of resets it.

Testimonial: "Thanks will give it a try when i have a few minutes spare."

SOURCE: Dewalt DC925 Clutch Ring Jammed

if your in hurry & away from the service center all you need to do is just loosen the 4 screw that holds the clutch housing & set it # 1 & back to drill mode couple of times. do not remove clutch if your not sure co'z its got tiny needle bearing on front of the transmission.this is just a temporary fix . it may happened again.

SOURCE: Cannot engage hammer action

the problem is the metal part of the clutch that meets the pin from the transmission. remove the 4 screw from the clutch & check if the the inside of the clutch & the trans pin meets. all you can do is to push back the metal parts of the clutch setting.

SOURCE: when in drill mode the tork still kicks in on my dewalt

there is a gear and a clutch as agier said in the head. if its old it looses its catch, youll need to take it apart and look at it. the torque setting just tightens on the head the more you tighten it the less it will give( the ratcheting you hear when you set it low) .expensive drill so its worth trying to fix. how old is it? as for drilling thru knots and hard wood make sure your bits are sharp, you can spend alot of time trying to drill with a dull bit. do you sharpen your bits? i do alot of drilling with battery drill thruout the year and believe me a sharp bit is waaaay easier. though ive never had to sharpen concrete bit because they always break when they get old and i buy new.

so your saying it stops completley when you hit something hard, right. does it ratchet?

How to get the chuck off a dcd950 dewalt hammer drill

Only the screw in the centre of the chuck would be l/h tread, the chuck should be normal thread and come off in an anti clockwise direction. Please confirm drill model number.They did a version where you needed a service tool to remove it and refit. It is torqued on.

Can't engage drill or hammer settings on de walt dc 925 xrp

Try turning the ring to 2 or 3 and run the drill holding the chuck so the clutch slips then try turning it to drill setting. Also try to do it in different speed settings. If not it sounds like a fault in the gear module. It might just be a metal clip just under the clip in side. Undo the 4 screws holding the gearbox onto the housing and carefully remove it, you might see the fault or loads of dirt that needs cleaning. Go to http://www.2helpu.com/world/map.aspx for a drawing.

Amount of torque per setting in dewalt dc925 xrp

The torque settings are not tightly controlled so they are not all that repeatable from drill to drill. They also vary somewhat with the speed of the drill and the condition of the battery. And they aren't linear (a setting of 10 is not twice the 5 setting) Simplest thing to do for a rough idea is to use your hand to hold the chuck still to feel how much torque you have at each setting. (start low and grip it tight!) If you want a specific torque setting, say 10 ft-lbs, then put a stout screw in a scrap of wood, hang a 10 lb weight on it 12 inches from the screw and adjust until it just starts to slip.

Drill works fine but wont engage hammer. the torque ring goes from 1 to 21 ok but i cant engage the drill or hammer setting

On my DW988 the ring would go past 21 a couple of clicks to a symbol that looks like a yellow T and that would be hammer mode when I press down to drill.

I have a dewalt dc925 combi drill the chuck keep slipping and also the setting ring is hard to adjust . What can i do top solve this?

Probably needs a new transmission. They cost about $34 plus shipping. Easy to fix. Just remove the four torx screws from the metal (gray in color) part of the drill. Then pull it apart. The transmission comes in a one piece cassette. Pull out the old transmission, insert the new one, put the front back on and tighten the screws.
