The Makita HR2651 is a top - notch rotary hammer drill that offers a comprehensive solution for various tasks. Combining powerful drilling and chipping capabilities, it significantly reduces vibration and enhances dust extraction. Thanks to its anti - vibration technology (AVT), an internal counterbalance system, the vibration is greatly minimized. The built - in dust extractor, activated by the tool itself, efficiently captures concrete dust during drilling. It features an outstanding HEPA filtration system that traps 99.97% of particulates 0.3 microns and larger, and the transparent dust container comes with an accurate level indicator. With an 8 - AMP motor, it delivers 2.2 Joules (1.6 ft. lbs.) of impact energy, suitable for the most demanding jobs. The 3 - mode operation ('rotation only', 'hammering with rotation', or 'chipping only') offers great versatility. The recessed hammer - function selector below the gear housing ensures durability. The ergonomic pistol - grip handle with a rubberized soft grip provides a comfortable user experience. This drill also includes a side handle, depth rod, and a tool case. It has a torque - limiting clutch to prevent gear damage, a depth stop adjustment for up to 7 - 7/16' deep drilling, a variable - speed trigger for different applications, and 40 bit angle settings for convenience. In terms of specifications, it has an AMPS of 7, a maximum concrete drilling capacity of 1', an optimum range of 1/4' - 5/8', and more.
Using the Makita HR2651 is quite straightforward. First, choose the appropriate mode based on your task. For simple rotation, select the 'rotation only' mode; for drilling with hammering, pick 'hammering with rotation'; and for chipping, go for 'chipping only'. The recessed hammer - function selector below the gear housing makes mode changes easy. When drilling, adjust the depth stop to control the drilling depth up to 7 - 7/16'. Use the variable - speed trigger to match the speed with your specific job. The 40 bit angle settings let you set the bit at a convenient position. When it comes to dust extraction, the tool will automatically activate the dust extractor. Just keep an eye on the level indicator in the transparent dust container and empty it when needed. As for maintenance, after each use, clean the drill body and the dust container. Check the bit for any signs of wear and replace it if necessary. If the drill bit binds during operation, the torque - limiting clutch will disengage the gears to prevent damage. Make sure to store the drill in a dry place, and use the included tool case for safe storage. Also, follow the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer to avoid any accidents.
