Dromone Tilt Buckets can be fitted with a quick coupler or directly on an excavator arm.Able to tilt 45� left or right, the buckets have an integrated check-valve system to reduce the pin-to-edge distance for greater balance. The buckets are well suited to backfilling, ditch-cleaning, grading, land-clearing and sloping applications. The buckets have hardened, sealed pins, wear-resistant insert bushings and wire-guarded hoses for a longer bucket life. Dromone Engineering; 857-272-1116; www.dromone.com

The Makita LXT Brushless SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer is powered by a 18-volt lithium-ion battery. The hammer has a one-inch capacity and features a built-on vacuum attachment. The variable-speed motor can deliver up to 950 rpm or up to 4,7000 bpm. The model LXRH011 HEPA Dust Xtraction Vacuum Attachment is powered by a separate motor, so the rotary hammer's performance is unaffected by the system. Makita; 800-462-5482; www.makitatools.com
