Makita DHR171Z 18v LXT SDS+ Plus Cordless Brushless Rotary Hammer 17mm Body Only
Makita has created a new class in cordless with 18V LXT new compact tools. The Brushless DHR171 17mm SDS Plus Rotary Hammer is ideal for working in tight spaces and for overhead conditions.
The DHR171 has an efficient Makita Brushless Motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. It has 2-mode operation for “rotation only” or “hammering with rotation”, with 0-680 RPM, 0-4,800 IPM and 1.2 Joules of impact energy for fast and efficient drilling. The compact size and lower weight mean reduced fatigue for operators, especially for overhead applications.
Additional features include a vibration-absorbing handle that moves independently of the motor and hammer mechanism for increased operator comfort, as well as a variable speed trigger, built-in L.E.D. lights, and one-touch sliding chuck for easy bit changes.
Supplied body only. Batteries and chargers are sold separately.

When I fired it up it didnt sound that powerful and I was concerned it wouldnt get through masonary. However when I used it it drilled straight through with no proble. Its quiete and seem under powered but actually its not and it does the job.

Because of the fact I'm wheelchair bound my tools need to be cordless and this Makita rotary hammer is another addition to my cordless collection. As yet i haven't used it but I'm confident that I will have no issues and it will be just as good as the remainder of Makita cordless tools.
