## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do i buy just the handle?**
A: Turn it

**Q: What is the units watt out rating for the dcd 998b hammer drill?**
A: About 1230 uwo . It's awesome

**Q: I purchased the dcd998b hammer drill.  when using it and i release the trigger, there is a loud clunking sound.  is this normal?**
A: Not sure your meaning "clunking".   There is a sound where the device is using the rotational energy to transfer back to the battery.  It makes a noise during this braking time.    This is mostly heard when the drill is not driving (actively loaded).   Try actually drilling/driving something and see if the sound goes away (resistance to drilling or driving will stop the bit).  If the noise persists, there may be something wrong.

**Q: What is the UWO (torque) on this model?**
A: 1072 UWO
