Why is my Hilti Rotary Hammer not hammering?
- JJeremy GonzalezAug 22, 2025
If your Hilti Rotary Hammer isn't hammering, there could be a few reasons: * The rotary hammer might be too cold. Try bringing the tip of the drill bit into contact with the working surface, switch the rotary hammer on and allow it to run. If necessary, repeat the procedure until the hammering mechanism begins to operate. * The function selector switch may be set to “Drilling without hammering”. Ensure it is set to “Hammer drilling”. * The rotary hammer might have been set to reverse rotation. Switch it to the “Forward” position.
