Powerful 13.5 AMP motor; 1,250-2,750 BPM to handle the most demanding jobs

Anti-Vibration Technology is an internal counterbalance system that greatly reduces vibration and directs more impact energy to the work surface for increased user comfort and greater productivity

Constant speed control automatically applies additional power to the motor to maintain speed under load to complete the most challenging jobs

Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for more control and better accuracy

Variable speed control dial enables user to match the speed to the application for greater versatility

L.E.D. service light notifies the user approximately 8 hours before the brushes need to be replaced

L.E.D. power lights indicate switch failure or cord damage

2-mode operation for "Hammering Only" or "Hammering with Rotation" for multiple applications

Torque limiting clutch engineered to prevent gear damage by automatically disengaging gears if the bit binds

Sequential impact timing delivers timed hammering during rotation to minimize overlapping bit impacts resulting in up to 50% faster drilling

Makita Motor Advantage engineered with field core interlocking steel laminations, dual ball bearing armature and more copper commutator bars, increasing energy transfer efficiency for more power and longer tool life

Extended life brushes are longer for more work between service intervals and less downtime

16 bit angle settings allow the bit to be set at different positions for operating convenience

Automatic brush cut-off protects commutator from damage for longer tool life

Lock-on slide switch for continuous operation ("Hammering Only" mode)

One-touch sliding chuck for quick bit changes

Rubberized ergonomic soft grip provides more comfort and control

Accepts SDS-MAX bits
