              How do you adjust the depth guide?
              ByJul 25, 2018
              3 Answers | 
              Answer This Question

              Thank you for your question. The depth guage is a sliding piece attached to the side handle. You can slide the piece to extend beyond the chuck to the depth you want to drill the hole.

              By|May 5, 2023

                Loosen the handle enough that the side nut pops loose. Then adjust to the depth you want and tighten the handle again to lock it into place.

                By|Jan 23, 2019
                  0/0

                  unscrew the handle counter clockwise, slide the depth rod to the desired length, tighten the handle clockwise. This also loosens the handle to rotate to a different position and to remove it.

                    what is the black button on the handle

                    Answer This Question

                    Thank you for your question. The button is a lock-on button. It will lock the trigger switch on for operator comfort during extended use.

                    By|May 5, 2023

                      It holds the trigger on without pressing the trigger. Press the trigger fully, push the button, release the trigger. Press the trigger again to release it.

                                  Great .but
                                  Great all around. I used it a lot both regular and hammer drill for concrete. Only downside for me personally is I lost the wrench and now it’s time to replace the head and I’m unable to get off the head with normal wrenches. Going to have to buy a new one. So sad.

                                    Average horsepower and hammering action felt underpowered. Used this to drill holes into my basement concrete walls for anchor screws. Did OK but took a lot of elbow grease to complete the task. Overall, not impressive. It also sounds raspy when operating (not from the hammer setting) like it wasn't fully lubricated. Chuck and key tended to slip when tightening. I've had a regular Makita corded drill since the late 80's and it's still going strong. I don't have that expectation on this drill. Hopefully it will last to finish my basement wall.

                                    A solid drill, I haven't used the hammer mode yet, but I purchased it for regular drilling and as a back-up for a cordless drill. So far I like it except for the forward/ reverse switch, just not used to it. Good power, its a hefty drill.

                                    Well, I don't have much to compare it against except my porter cable brushless drill. I needed this to use hole saws through 3/4" common board. I used some harbor freight hole saws that I thought sucked until I used this drill with them. In the video I had already flipped the board over. (it's always better to flip over and finish hole from other side...makes it way easier to remove the core and to just finish the hole). Anyway great Makita drill. Last time I had a Makita product it was a 9.6v drill i think when I was 12. I'm not a pro just a hobbyist.

                                      poor quality
                                      The first drill lasted about 15 minutes before sparks started coming from the casing and the drill started to die slowly. Returned that one and got another new one. It did what I needed but the chuck kept loosening up and slipping on the drill bit. Very frustrating.

                                      Pretty nice tool from reputable manufacture for small money. Just what I needed for various projects when battery operated drills aren't enough. My first project for this power drill was holes in the quartz. It worked great. My only complain is that trigger tends to stuck causing motor to rotate very slowly. I wonder if anyone else encountered that problem? It is not a deal breaker for me, but obviously the tool design or assembly is not flawless. I own it too short to speak about longevity of this drill but I trust Makita.

                                      The drill worked great for about 30 minutes. I was drilling 5/8" holes in 4x4 posts with a spade bit. All of the sudden, the bit stopped spinning so I thought I needed to tighten the chuck. I did but it was still tight. I tried drilling again and the bit spun but there was a very loud squealing noise coming from the motor housing, and there was smoke coming out the vent holes. I packed it up and returned the same day I bought it. So disappointing- I thought Makita was a trusted name in power tools. I'll stay away from them from now on.
