   someone else recently posted this site - http://www.ereplacementparts.com/ with a recommendation - I haven't used them yet, but I was able to navigate and find some obscure pieces I need -

   Thanks, been there, no luck.

   They had a nice exploded drawing which told me I needed part #40.

   Went to their parts list ---- 36, 37, 38, 39, blank, blank, 42, 43,.......

   I have a bunch of old Makita 9.6 and 12 V drills. 

   If you e-mail me a pix of your switch, I'll send you a switch free if I have a match.  Would guess there is a possibility of the same switch in many of the drills?

   Never throw away an old tool, you may one day need a piece off it.

   Thanks for the offer, but this is a 120v model.

   This looks like a live one!

   Don't have the time right now to determine which of two possibles is the right one.  Will decipher later.

   Thanks,

   Know just how you feel, need trigger for Bosch cordless drill.Would like to order from a place in Canada, not having any luck with that at all.
   Googled for a very long time and then gave up.Put up a thread asking for help. "canuck web site for tool parts", still have ordered it.

   I mean really it`s trigger, usually the first then to go on a drill.

   Well Good Luck

   I will second the recommendation for ereplacement parts.

   The link for your drill is:

   http://www.ereplacementparts.com/makita-dp4700-1234-electric-drill-parts-c-97_106_147_11703.html

   I ordered parts for a couple of my Porter Cable routers, and trim routers, from them.

   The pricing was highly competitive, and their customer service was excellent.

   I reread the original post, and double checked the link I sent, and they didn't have the switch either.

   But, there are several listed on ebay.

   http://shop.ebay.com/items/?_nkw=makita+drill+switch+dp4700&_sacat=0_trksid=p3286.m270.l1313&_odkw=makita+drill+switch&_osacat=0

   Thanks.

   Took me a while to follow your link -- they had it -- ordered -- received yesterday -- installed this morning -- running good!

   I've used makitadirect.com many times and found it problem-free. I think that's the right URL -- if not, you can google it. good luck.
