Аккумуляторные шуруповерты уже несколько лет occupy a strong position in the sales rankings of hand tools. This is due to the fact that the latest technological improvements have expanded the scope of application of models and made them almost independent of the sockets. A significant contribution to the improvement of the performance properties of this tool was made by Makita designers. Premium versions of screwdrivers of this brand show an example of an optimal balance between technical characteristics, functionality and ergonomics. The “Makita 6281” series, although not an advanced one in terms of consumer qualities, is quite suitable for private use. Almost all the tasks that affect the creation of holes and work with hardware, are able to qualitatively perform the representatives of this family. In addition, many are attracted by the cost of the tool, which varies from 6 to 7 thousand rubles. average.
Line 6281 presents several modifications.screwdriver designed for domestic use. The base unit is the “6281 D Makit”, in which the main structural and ergonomic advantages of the entire series are concentrated. This model supports the ability to work in two main modes - as a screwdriver and drill. But this does not mean that professional use is not available for the device. Typical tasks of drilling and twisting can be performed in the conditions of large-scale construction - another thing is that complex operations can be performed more easily with a tool of a higher class.
This model is mostly homemade.assistant wagon. This is indicated by the presence of the reverse stroke, and the function of the impact, as well as the power potential, supported by a voltage of 14.4 V - this is the average value for cordless screwdrivers. For comparison, professional models are equipped with 18V engines. Also worth mentioning is the Makita 6281DWPE modification, which is distinguished by an optimized power supply system. The owners note the fact of the later appearance of this version, which indicates the use of the new element base. However, in practice there are no significant differences in operation. Both versions are equipped with the same body, and the performance is generally consistent with each other.
The Japanese company is famous for its successful selectionoperational parameters for their tools that do not go against each other, but organically work on a common task. That is, if the model is intended for use in everyday life, then the emphasis is on ergonomics and the extra functionality from the premium tool is not implemented. The same applies to professional devices that do not make sense to complement the options that help fans and beginners. As for this model, the manufacturer has withstood the balance between ergonomics, safety and performance. The result was a compact, and depending on the version of the impact screwdriver, the characteristics of which look like this:
Стоит отметить, что номинальные рабочие параметры not always correspond to the actual, but even in the case of compliance, much in efficiency depends on the implementation of the technical and structural part. The same applies to the model "Makita 6281", the characteristics of which in the speed indicator can vary - for example, in the basic version there are two speeds: at 400 and 1300 rpm. Peak frequency level is typical for almost all modifications of the line, and the minimum initial speed in some versions can be 300 rpm.
Пожалуй, наиболее спорное решение для всех Series models are Ni-Cd Ni-Cd batteries. As already noted, the devices are supplied with elements with a capacity of 1.3 to 1.9 A * h on average, which require about 1 h for energy replenishment. The charge consumption time depends on the nature of the workflow. The fact is that since the formation of the fashion for a battery-powered electric tool, all major manufacturers, with rare exceptions, have begun to master the advanced technology of lithium-ion cells. Basically, the Makita assortment was formed on such blocks. A cordless screwdriver from the 6281 series, in turn, was an exception. What is bad element Ni-Cd?
Mostly users complain about so muchcalled the memory effect, which is that in order to make a full energy replenishment, the unit must be completely and defused. That is, recharging is not recommended. Specialists also note the content of heavy metals in such energy sources, which requires increased caution in the physical handling of them. On the other hand, there are also positive aspects in the “Makita 6281” power supply system, one of which, by the way, provided the instrument with a tolerable price tag - at least, taking into account the remaining technical and operational capabilities. In addition to low cost, nickel-cadmium batteries are characterized by large charge-discharge cycles, they allow working in freezing temperatures and are quickly charged. By comparison, lithium-ion cells on average replenish energy for 2–3 hours. But in order that the nickel-cadmium screwdriver does not stand idle for an extra hour, the manufacturer provided two complete power supplies for replacing each other.
Производитель предусмотрел несколько technological solutions to maintain various aspects of the operation of the tool. It is worth starting with working qualities, which have been improved by the possibility of reversing the nozzle, backlight and the presence of a shock function. However, the maintenance of impact does not apply to all modifications. It is present in the version of DWPLE, also included in the 6281 family. In the process of using the impact screwdriver, it can cope with unscrewing old and rusty hardware, and also provides the functions of a drill with a perforation effect.
In part of the design, there are also severalfeatures. First of all, it is a keyless chuck. Its presence allows the operator to carry out a nozzle change without extra effort and time - this is very useful if several diverse tasks are performed in one work event. In addition, during operation, the user can select the required torque for each operation - 16 positions are provided, each of which is focused on a specific course of the nozzle. Special attention was paid to security systems. In particular, the cordless drill "Makita 6281" received air cooling, which prevents overheating of the structure. To protect against accidental activation, there is a special lock on the start button.
Базовая комплектация шуруповерта включает два battery pack, charger, corporate case and recessed flashlight. Additional accessories, fixtures, consumables and parts will have to be purchased in a separate order. With regard to accessories, for the organization of safe operation will require personal protective equipment. Also, especially when working with metal, it is important to have on hand adapters and adapters for special drills. In terms of the choice of consumables should focus on the tasks that will solve the tool "Makita 6281D". Parts are purchased as individual parts and parts are worn, but you should always keep in stock the cartridge, gearbox and carbon brushes of the engine. As the manufacturer notes, the metal gearbox ensures the durability of the tool, but intense loads in the regular use mode can exhaust the resource of any power filling. Actually, this is one of the differences of this model from professional screwdrivers, the design of which is initially focused on harsh operating conditions. And in order for the instrument to serve at home as long as possible, you should follow the recommended rules for the operation and maintenance of the device.
Before starting work, you should make sure thatThe battery pack is sufficiently charged and ready to go. Next, it needs to be integrated into a special niche on the handle - it is easily inserted into the connector until a click appears, which will mean the correctness of fixation. Then a drill or bit suitable for operation is inserted into the keyless chuck. It is recommended to use the screwdriver “Makita 6281” in the configuration with the original branded nozzles, which in terms of strength correspond to the capabilities of the tool. After that, the optimal mode is selected. Torque switching is performed manually, and the switch tongue should not be located midway between the stroke frequency values. It should focus precisely on a specific figure.
For the convenience of changing the speed providedspecial switch. But dramatically changing the intensity of the current pace of work is not recommended. Moreover, the Makita 6281DWPE modification supports reverse travel, which can be switched on at all only after disabling the normal speed. As for the work process itself, it is important to observe accuracy, not to apply excessive pressure when drilling and to orient the sting bits to the center of the screws, avoiding deviations.
Перед тем как приступить к техническому maintenance, should disassemble the tool. That is, release the design from additional structural and functional components - from the nozzle, flashlight, keyless chuck, battery pack, etc. Especially, you should be careful when handling the battery of the “Makita 6281” device. The instruction warns users against closing the contacts of the nickel-cadmium element and any contact with them. It should be kept in a dry place at room temperature and away from metallic materials.
Сам инструмент проверяется на конструкционную integrity, density of connection of separate parts and a condition of contacts in the socket for the accumulator. It is important to pay attention to the vents. They can become clogged in the process of working with wood, so after each treatment session you need to clean them. Cooling the Makit 6281 screwdriver with air plays a big role in extending its service life, so this part of the service should not be ignored.
The tool is highly appreciated by casual users.who periodically perform simple repairs. The owners note the convenience of handling the device, and an adequate supply of power, and its functional content. In terms of ergonomics, it should be noted that the “Makita 6281” screwdriver is almost unique, since at high performance it has small dimensions and a modest weight. It gives the chance to carry out twisting and drilling in hard-to-reach spots. And here is indicated support for the flashlight, which highlights the same hard-to-reach and unlit areas. To this should be added a good bundle, which for many becomes the decisive factor of choice. Models of this level are rarely supplied with plastic cases and two batteries as standard, not to mention the LED backlight.
Many fans of the brand were disappointed with the overalltool quality. The company is famous for its high resource of constructional parts and consumables, but in this case there was an obvious saving on materials. Most of the critics got the battery, which is supplied with the model "Makita 6281 D". Reviews mark fast charging as the only merit of this block, behind which there are many weak points. The main claim is that after a short period of time, battery usage literally loses volume. According to various calculations, the resource lasts for a year, after which the time of their action is reduced to 15-20 minutes. It is obvious that the full use of the tool in such gaps and speech can not be.
И все же аккумулятором не ограничиваются model flaws. Users testify to the poor quality of the cartridge, gearbox and related parts. As practice shows, the most wear-out mode is the reverse course of the Makita apparatus. A cordless screwdriver in this design also suffers from the quality of the materials from which the auxiliary parts are made. Creators, for example, are criticized for plastic gears - it is obvious that with such element base we can’t talk about high working life.
При всех минусах аппарата не стоит забывать, что analogues with the same functionality is almost impossible to find. That is, they are found in the assortments of little-known Chinese manufacturers, but the quality of such products is unlikely to be even higher than the Japanese model in question. In addition, do not forget about how much a screwdriver "Makita 6281" - 7 thousand for a model with such capabilities is very good. In the families of manufacturers of the same level, screwdrivers worth up to 7-8 thousand only in exceptional cases can boast a combination of 14.4 V power, the presence of a shock function and a wide range of equipment. On the other hand, they are also more likely to be supplied with reliable lithium-ion batteries, not to mention durable parts in the stuffing. Therefore, a clear answer to the question of the appropriateness of the acquisition of this unit can not be. Still, the prospect of regular repair activities is unlikely to please the home wizard. If only he needs to resort to the help of a screwdriver in rare cases - but then there is no need for an extended option. For a professional, this option can also cause a lot of problems, although there will also be some benefit.
