Key specs include a 530W motor, variable speed up to 2,500 RPM, a 3/8-inch (10mm) chuck, forward/reverse function, a durable metal gear housing, a belt clip for portable use, and an ergonomic soft-grip handle with a compact, lightweight profile for comfortable operation.

It’s suitable for drilling into wood, metal, and plastic. The variable speed helps tailor performance for different materials, and it supports light-duty metal drilling and screwdriving tasks.

This drill uses a 3/8-inch keyed chuck. To change bits, insert the desired bit into the chuck and tighten securely using the chuck key. Ensure the bit is straight and fully seated before drilling.

Wear eye protection, use clamps to secure workpieces, keep hands away from the rotating bit, and always switch off and unplug (or remove the battery, if applicable) before changing bits or attachments. Inspect bits for damage before use and avoid dull or bent bits.

It features a compact, lightweight design with a soft-grip handle to reduce fatigue and improve control during extended use, along with a balanced chassis and a forward/reverse control for smoother operation.

Squeeze the trigger to start drilling and vary pressure to control RPM. Light pressure yields slower, precise drilling, while increasing trigger pressure raises the speed for faster drilling on appropriate materials.

Ideal for home improvements, woodworking, general workshop tasks, and light-duty metal drilling. The forward/reverse function also supports screwdriving applications.

Keep the chuck and bits clean, use sharp, appropriate drill bits, and periodically inspect the gear housing and attachment points for wear. Follow Makita’s maintenance guidelines for lubrication and care.
