Makita 450980-4 Spare Part - CHANGE LEVER BHR261/262/BHR26
Makita 450980-4 — Change Lever (original Makita)
Replace a worn or broken mode-change lever with this original Makita change lever (part no. 450980-4). It’s the small molded selector lever that engages the gearbox/mode mechanism on Makita combination/rotary hammer drills — the part you use to switch between drill, hammer-drill and chisel modes.
What you get: a direct-fit, injection-moulded change lever designed to match the factory shape and mounting points (pin hole and contact surfaces) so it snaps into the selector assembly without modification. The lever is made from durable engineering plastic to resist wear from repeated mode changes and grit intrusion. Installation is a simple swap into the selector slot — no machining or trimming required.
Fits (examples): BHR261, BHR262 (and related DHR/DHRx combination-hammer variants such as DHR263ZJ and DHR264ZJ), as shown in Makita parts breakdowns for those models. If your tool’s parts list shows 450980-4 as the change/shift lever, this is the matching original Makita replacement.
Compact, exact-fit replacement meant for repairing your existing Makita tool quickly — keep the original behaviour and selector feel by using this genuine Makita change lever (450980-4).
