Power, safety, and durability

Powered by a LongLife AC/DC motor, this grinder can push material removal with up to 50% more torque and tolerate higher overload conditions by up to 20%. The design emphasizes heat management through an unobstructed rear air intake, optimized internal airflow, and epoxy coated copper windings that extend beyond the field coil. A winding protection grid can help extend armature life in tough environments, while a mechanical S-Automatic slip clutch reduces kickback if an accessory jams, allowing you to regain control quickly.

Design, ergonomics, and versatility

The tool features a die-cast aluminum gear housing that efficiently dissipates motor heat and is rotatable in 90-degree steps, enabling left-handed operation or different cutting angles. The handle circumference is among the smallest in its class, paired with a rubberized side grip and a 15-degree offset for reduced fatigue and improved handling during extended use. The tool-free guard is burst-proof and adaptable for metal grinding or masonry cutting, while the M-Quick system provides the fastest tool-free disc changes at the touch of the large spindle lock button. An auto-stop feature safeguards the motor by stopping carbon brushes when needed.

• Rotatable gear housing for flexible left/right handed use
• Smallest handle circumference in its class for comfortable use
• Tool-free adjustable guard for easy setup and burst-proof performance
