Something is probably preventing the clutch plates from seating themselves fully. I'm assuming that you have the torque collar set to the drill position (as marked by the icon on the collar) and not one of the torque settings. If the transmission was ever taken apart, you might open it back up and see what pushes the plates together; in the Bosch drills we used to use there were ball bearings that, if dislodged from their nests, would prevent the plates from engaging. Make sure that nothing is inside and that the clutch plates still have the clutching indentations facing each other. In the meantime, I've sent a new drill to your school.
