Makita 162245-9 Spare Part - CHANGE LEVER HR2470/BHR202

Original Makita change lever (part no. 162245-9) — a molded selector/mode-change lever used on Makita SDS‑Plus rotary hammers — replaces worn, cracked or loose selector handles so your tool reliably switches between drilling, hammer‑drill and chiseling modes.

Common fits include HR2470 (HR2470F/HR2470T), HR2475, BHR202/BHR241 and many DHR202/DHR241 variants (examples: DHR202, DHR202RF, DHR202RMJ, DHR241RFE); check your model’s exploded view to confirm position 13 corresponds to 162245-9.

This genuine Makita part is a small, durable polymer lever that mounts into the grip/gear housing and works with the internal compression spring and lock button to index the tool’s mode plate — it’s the exact replacement mentioned in Makita parts diagrams (ref. drawing/position 13).

Ideal if the original selector on your rotary hammer is broken, stiff, or slipping; an inexpensive, direct replacement that restores correct mode selection without modifying the tool. For repairs and maintenance, we list it among other essential parts for power tools you may want to have on hand.
