The two-speed gearbox provides speeds of 0–550rpm and 0–2,100rpm, allowing users to select high torque for demanding applications or higher speed for faster drilling.

A 13mm keyless chuck enables quick and convenient accessory changes, while 21 torque settings provide precise control across different fasteners and materials.

Built for Professional Use

The DDF492Z incorporates electronic overload protection to help protect both the user and tool during demanding applications. Makita's battery protection system automatically shuts down the tool when battery capacity becomes too low, helping protect the battery from excessive discharge.

An electric brake improves productivity and control, while integrated LED lighting provides excellent visibility when working in dark or confined areas.
