Makita MAC700 Review

The Makita MAC700 comes equipped with a cast iron pump with Big Bore cylinder and piston, combined with greater bore and stroke, to deliver maximum performance. The pump’s design also ensures substantially lower noise levels with a large 1,720-RPM pump, enabling greater displacement at lower RPM. The low amp draw reduces incidences of tripped breakers and voltage drop that can cause premature motor failure, while the oil-lubricated pump provides cooler running and minimizes wear.

The device’s 2.0 HP motor is powered by Makita’s Big Bore engineered pump, built with a cast iron cylinder for greater bore and stroke, faster recovery, and less noise. The oil-lubricated pump is equipped with a large automotive-style filter, boosting air intake and efficiency. Additionally, the Big Bore pump is more efficient, runs cooler, and operates at half the RPM of most competitive units, resulting in greater motor and pump life and lower noise.

The MAC700 has a 2.6-gallon tank that sustains an operating pressure of 130 PSI, delivering 40 PSI (3.8 CFM) and 90 PSI (3.3 CFM). The device's roll bar handle provides portability and additional protection, enabling it to withstand harsh jobsite environments. Additional features include a convenient oil drain and oil sight glass, a tank drain valve that supersedes standard petcock design for easier maintenance, and finned discharge tubing that dissipates heat more efficiently.

The Makita MAC700 is engineered for low noise, high output, and less maintenance. It delivers industrial power and results with improved durability under tough job site conditions. The device is just another example of Makita's commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering.
