The Makita DHP490Y01 is an 18V LXT brushless 1/2" hammer drill-driver supplied as a compact kit. It includes an 18V (Compact) Li-Ion battery BL1815N (196235-0), a standard charger, and a keyless drill chuck (763260-2). The brushless motor delivers up to 580 in. lbs (65 Nm) of maximum torque and achieves high no-load speed for fast drilling.
Designed for versatility on the jobsite, the tool offers 20-stage torque settings for fine fastening control, mechanical 2-speed gearing to choose between higher rpm or more torque, and three action modes: drilling, hammer drilling, and screwdriving. A single LED with pre-glow and after-glow helps illuminate the work area, while the variable-speed trigger gives responsive speed control.
Practical size and handling make this compact driver suitable for work in tight spaces. The overall length is 6-3/4" (172 mm) and the net weight ranges from 3.1 lbs to 3.7 lbs (1.4 kg to 1.7 kg). Typical drilling capacities include masonry and steel to 1/2" (13 mm) and wood to 1-1/2" (38 mm).
Built for tougher conditions, the tool includes eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) for improved resistance to dust, debris and liquids, a reversing switch, a hanging hook, and a battery protection circuit to reduce overloading, over-discharging and over-heating.
