The DeWALT DCH133N-XJ rotary hammer is a compact, battery-powered tool designed for drilling and light chiselling in masonry and concrete. It combines a powerful motor capable of up to 5680 RPM with an SDS Plus chuck system and delivers 2.6 J of impact energy, enabling drilling in concrete up to 26 mm. At 18 V and with a 5 Ah battery capacity, the tool balances performance and portability while its 2.2 kg weight improves handling during extended use. The housing uses DeWALT's characteristic yellow-and-black design and is intended for professionals and serious DIY users seeking cordless convenience for site tasks.

Advantages

The DCH133N-XJ offers a high rotation speed and consistent impact energy for efficient hole-making in concrete and masonry. Its SDS Plus chuck allows quick, secure bit changes and compatibility with a wide range of masonry and concrete drill bits. Lightweight construction and cordless operation increase maneuverability and make the tool suitable for overhead and confined-space work. The 18 V power supply with 5 Ah capacity supports sustained operation on a single battery charge, reducing interruptions on the job.

How to use

Fit a compatible SDS Plus bit and secure the battery before operation. Select the appropriate mode (rotary hammer or rotary-only if available) depending on whether drilling or chiselling is required. Start at low speed to position the bit, then increase to working speed while applying steady pressure; avoid excessive force to protect the motor and bit. For deep holes, periodically withdraw the bit to clear debris and allow cooling. After use, remove the battery and clean the chuck and external surfaces of dust and debris.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling concrete. Match drill-bit diameter and type to the task, and allow the tool to rest during prolonged heavy use. Store the tool and batteries in a dry, cool place and follow battery manufacturer guidelines for charging and storage.
