Key Features & Benefits
- 710W motor with 1.9J impact energy — drills concrete and masonry efficiently for everyday fixing work.
- 2-mode operation — switches between rotary-hammer and rotation-only for drilling masonry, wood and steel.
- SDS-Plus chuck — swaps bits quickly and locks them securely with positive bit retention.
- Variable speed with reverse — controls hole starting and backs bits out of tight holes cleanly.
- Torque limiter — disengages drive if the bit jams, protecting your wrist and the gearbox.
- Compact 2.5kg body with carry case — is easy to handle overhead and to transport between jobs.
When to Use This Rotary Hammer
Choose the M8700B for routine drilling and light hammering — anchor holes, conduit, plumbing first-fix and general fixings up to 22mm in concrete. It’s the lighter, more affordable of the two: step up to the 800W, 28mm, 3-mode HR2811FT (with chiselling and interchangeable chuck) when you need a bigger capacity, chipping mode and longer duty cycles.
Pro Tip: Match the bit length to the job and clear the hole as you go — pulling the M8700B back a little every few seconds in deep holes lets the flutes evacuate dust, which keeps drilling speed up and stops the bit binding and tripping the torque limiter.
