Hammering doesn't engage until it's pushed. Basic physics says it could
hardly be otherwise.


If you push, the hammer action stops. It is a matter of just holding
the drill against what ever you are drilling, which allows the hammer
action to begin.


you must have a different sds drill to my bosch & dewalt.


+1It takes a small amount of pressure to engage the SDS action.

If you push the hammer function engages and if you don't push the drill
just rotates without a hammer action. The same is true with chiseling
with a rotational stop.
