11 AMP Power with 2-Mode Operation
The HR4010C with AVT is engineered with an 11 AMP motor that provides plenty of power, with a no load speed of 235 to 480 RPM and 1,350 to 2,750 BPM. The synchronized RPM and BPM prevent overlapping impacts for up to 50% more efficient drilling. The hammer features two modes of operation--"hammering with rotation" and "hammering only"--with a built-in torque limiter that ensures stable torque control and disengages the motor should the bit bind or hit reinforcements. In addition, the electronic speed control reduces speed loss when working in heavy applications to ensure maximum productivity. The HR4010C also has a variable speed dial with five settings to match the bit speed to the application. An L.E.D. power light indicates switch failure or cord breakage, and an L.E.D. service light indicates when carbon brushes need to be replaced. The HR4010C is built with large size carbon brushes that have up to twice the life of competitor models.More Work, Less Vibration
The HR4010C is equipped with AVT, Makita's exclusive counterbalance system that reduces vibration for more efficient hitting power. The HR4010C weighs 13 pounds and has two options of side handles available (straight and D-shaped, both with rubberized grips), and a large rubberized rear handle, all of which contribute to the overall comfort of the tool. The recessed operation mode switch helps prevent it from being damaged, while the one-touch sliding chuck allows for quick bit changes. Versatile Design for a Range of Applications
The HR4010C is a versatile, hard-hitting rotary hammer for masons, remodelers, electricians, plumbers, demolition contractors, and general contractors seeking a best-in-class industrial quality rotary hammer. The tool is built for drilling large anchor holes and breaking concrete and other masonry materials. The HR4010C is just another example of Makita's commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering. About Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT)
 Makita Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) Makita has adapted the science of earthquake engineering into power tools with Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). AVT is an exclusive innovative counterbalance design that provides the professional a power tool solution with up to three-times less vibration, less noise and more efficient power than the competition. Seismic research has developed this damping science to absorb shocks and protect buildings from the devastation of earthquake vibrations. AVT dynamic damping involves reciprocating engineering where a mechanical damper, effectively a counter balance weight, provides an equal and opposite anti-vibration force that puts an equal mass directly opposite the point at which the striker bolt delivers the impact joules to the breaker steel, carbide bit or recipro saw blade. As vibration is eliminated, power is efficiently increased. Without the dissipation of power through vibration, more of the generated energy in the motor can be delivered to the tool bit itself.

Another Makita Winner April 25, 2008
Michael W. OBrien (Valley Head, Alabama)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I recently purchased this Makita HR4010C,1 9/16 11 amp SDS-Max rotary hammer with AVT primarily to help me dig holes for posts and plants in my rocky,clay soil (called chert) in Northeast Alabama.Also wanted to use it for breaking up concrete and mortar to put in a new walkway. I also bought 12 inch and 18 inch bull points(Hitachi) and a Dewalt clay spade (as recommended in other reviews,but not sold on Amazon) and a scaling chisel.
I had read good reviews on other sites prior to purchase.
This Makita breaks up concrete with the bull point easily, no vibration. I used it again today to help dig several post holes (the first 18 inches of 24) and using the clay spade for the first foot and,then the 18 inch bull point for the deeper work.It worked great, and again no vibration.Now I need a 24 inch bull point.The Dewalt clay spade digs fine too.I have other Makita tools and have never been disappointed in their quality or durability.This HR4010C is worth what I paid for it and I can recommend it without hesitation, because if you want a tool of this type that will do the job and last, it will cost you for sure.I am an average-sized person( 5 ft 10 in,167 lbs),65 years old, and I handled it easily. Be certain to use the provided grease for the hub end of the implements and clean it off after using them .
Follow-up/ It's Sept.08 and this tool is still going strong after many projects. It's worth all that I paid for it. No problems. pathdoc60

Busting up concrete and being a plumber go hand in hand. I use a Bosch at work but after banging concrete for hours the noise and vibration get to you. The Makita seems more quiet and I definitely feel less vibration.
The D-handle is also very nice and I am addicted to it for detail work like chipping concrete around a pipe. This rotary does a great job.
The case is HUGE blow mold plastic. It has room for a few bits but not many. Bits for this girl are not stocked at your local stores. So, running down the depot for a 1" bit isn't going to happen. You either have it or your order it. Or if your a contractor you can get them at a supply house like I did.
If your a homeowner I would say this rotary is overkill, unless you are going to use the clay spade attachment for digging. The smallest bit you would want to run is a 3/8".
