Makita takes the classic rotary hammer and spruces it up with their own anti-vibration technology to reduce vibrations, aiming to improve user longevity and comfort.

The new model rotary hammer also comes with an updated dust extractor. The dust extractor contains the HEPA filtration system that “captures 99.97 percent of particulates 0.3 microns and larger,” according to the Makita website, and comes with its own cleaning system in order to maintain proper suction throughout the drilling process.

Other features include a pistol grip handle with a rubberized soft grip, a depth stop drill adjuster and an 8 AMP motor that can switch between three modes, those being “hammering with rotation,” “rotation only” or “chipping only.” makitatools.com
