FAQs

Can this drill be used to bore holes in thick concrete?

Is the chuck keyless?

Yes, it features a 13mm keyless metal chuck for tool-free bit changes.

Does this tool come with a belt hook?

Yes, a belt hook is included to assist with portability while working.

Can I use my existing DeWalt 18V XR batteries?

Yes, the DCD709 is fully compatible with the entire DeWalt 18V XR lithium-ion range.

How long does the LED light stay on?

The integrated LED light features a delay setting to provide illumination for a short period after you release the trigger.

Troubleshooting

Drill stops unexpectedly during operation

The electronic protection system may have engaged due to overload. Release the trigger and let the motor cool down before resuming.

Bit is slipping in the chuck

Ensure the bit is inserted correctly and the keyless chuck is tightened firmly while the drill is in the locked-off position.

Battery will not charge

Check the battery contacts for debris and ensure the charger is plugged into a functional outlet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The DCD709 is compatible with all DeWalt 18V XR lithium-ion battery packs. This allows you to swap batteries from your existing DeWalt tool collection.

Care:

  • Keep the tool clean by wiping the exterior with a dry cloth; avoid using strong solvents.
