Summary

You require a power cutter at least 10 times harder than the material you are working on. Selection gets really tough when it comes to stone, concrete, roads etc. Makita introduced EK7651H and it made big impressions at “2015 World of Concrete” show.

The Makita EK7651H 14-Inch MM4 4 Stroke Power Cutter was world’s first 4-stroke power cutter. It was designed to save time and energy with power and ergonomics. It delivers far better than traditional 2-stroke cutters in many ways and we will discover everything special about this tool.

4-Stroke Engine Makes Jobs Easy

The biggest attraction with the Makita EK7651H MM4 4 Stroke Power Cutter is its engine technology. It makes an engineer wonder how they managed to harness 4.1 horsepower with a dry weight of 28.3 pounds. Another exclusive feature of the EK7651H is that it eliminates the need of mixed oil. It was required for very precise mixture otherwise engine failures were a possibility.

It comes with an improved 5-stage air filtration system, while the exhaust outlet is shielded with enlarged spark arrestor screen. It has 3 ring design system of a piston. There is an advanced oil separation system for increased engine life and valve train durability. You don’t require a muscle to pull it start, thanks to automatic decompression engine valve which reduces the force by 40%.

Most Advance Features

The Makita EK7651H Power Cutter is also very efficient as it uses only 0.45 gallons per hour. It requires unleaded gas 37 Oz max fuel tank capacity. The temperature difference can cause a buildup but not with external fuel vent that releases pressure. There are no special tools required to access the fuel tank filter. A simple twist is required to open air filter from the top of tool.

Speaking ergonomically, there is a vibration-reducing system and four rubber cushions between over molded handle and engine housing. Noise reduction is another improved feature at 92.7 dB so you can work while hearing the wheel vs stone better. A premier bulb helps smooth delivery of fuel to carburetor for easy & quick cold starts.
