i have a milwaukee 5370 corded hammer/drill. it does not have a switch to change from hammer to drill, it has a collar you turn different directions. It  doesn’t seem to engage the clutch because the motor turns on, but the chuck does not engage. help

Hmm, seems to be some trouble with the gearing, did you just buy this? Or you have been using and this just happened?

Sounds like a gear issue to me. If it’s less than 5 years old it should be covered under warranty. If it’s older than that you’ll probably want to find a service center. Milwaukee has a service locater on their website.

Chase, can you post the warranty number and a link to the service locater for him? I’m on the road at the moment or I’d do it.
