Our Expert Says…
The DGA517Z Angle Grinder from Makita is equipped with a large paddle switch for user convenience, anti-restart to prevent motor start up when the battery is inserted with the switch locked on and electronic current limiter for overload protection. Other features include a 3 stage Battery Fuel Gauge to show the battery charge level, overheating and overload. The power remaining in the battery can be indicated in three stages simply by pushing a button. It will have 3 lights hen the tool has more than 50 per cent of full battery capacity, 2 lights on for 20 to 50 per cent of full battery capacity and 1 light on for less than 20 per cent of full battery capacity. The gauge will blink to warn against overheating and when the protection system works repeatedly due to overload, the tool will lock.
This is a Makita Body Only tool - batteries and chargers are available seperately.
FAQs
There’s plenty to think about when choosing an Angle Grinder. The first factor is the disc diameter; larger discs can make deeper cuts.
Then consider how much power you might need. Higher wattage tools provide more power and can therefore cut denser material. Then think about speed; some grinders operate at fixed speed and others have variable speed control. Being able to vary the working speed of your grinder enables you to carry out more delicate work.
Another factor is whether the tool is equipped with safety features, such as a Paddle Switch and Soft Start.
Brushed motors use carbon brushes to transfer power from the fixed part of the motor to the rotor. This creates a reliable and relatively inexpensive motor, but brushed motors do require regular maintenance, in order to either clean the brushes or replace them as they wear out. A brushless motor, by contrast, uses a magnet mounted on the rotor to generate the power and electrical switching to perform the function carried out by the brushes. The additional complexity of the motor’s working means that brushless motors are usually more expensive than brushed.
The work you’ll be doing with your grinder will influence which voltage you consider. If your grinder is going to be used for construction, you may want to think about choosing a Makita 40v or DeWalt 54v tool, but 18v variations are also available.
