Makita Genuine 162245-9 Change Lever for HR2470/BHR202 Rotary Hammers

The Makita 162245-9 Change Lever is a genuine OEM replacement part for Makita HR2470 and BHR202 SDS-Plus rotary hammer drills, restoring reliable mode selection to worn or damaged tools. Over time, the mode selector on a rotary hammer can crack, loosen, or lose its positive engagement — causing the tool to slip between settings or fail to hold the selected operating mode. This direct-fit replacement lever addresses exactly that, restoring clean, accurate switching between hammer-only, rotation-only, and hammer-with-rotation modes. Manufactured to Makita's original specification, this part is precision-moulded from a durable polymer that resists impact, wear, and oil exposure. Being a genuine Makita component, it matches the original dimensions and detent positions exactly, ensuring a straightforward installation with basic hand tools and confident long-term performance. This part is well suited to contractors and tradespeople carrying out scheduled maintenance on their rotary hammer, or looking to return a tool to safe, efficient operation after wear. It is equally appropriate for workshop repairs or on-site servicing where keeping tools operational is a priority.
