Well i ordered two of these grinders.. after the first day the first one the switch stopped working… gave it three cause atleast the other one is still working
It’s small, light weight, compared to professional use grinders, while delivering lots of power and lots of wheels and brushes available for various uses, including heavy duty diamond wheels. I found it very easy to use and control. The average home user will not likely find this unit lacking.
The grinder is tool-less, if you use their rubber backer DeWalt DW4945 4-1/2-Inch Rubber Backing Pad with Locking Nut for fiber discs and sanding disks or if you use their grinding and cutting wheels that have an integral nut, like this oneDEWALT DW4522 High Performance 1/8-Inch Metal Cutting and Grinding Wheel that has the 5/8 – 11 arbor. In both cases, the wheels can be installed and used with hand/finger tightening.
As far as I can tell, this grinder will accept every 4 1/2 grinding accessory wheel that is available. Many (most?)of them are marked with a 7/8 arbor, which will work fine. Just make sure that you install the 7/8 arbor wheel so that it is centered on the backer, which has a little lip at the 7/8 mark. Then install the locking nut, which also has a 7/8 lip to use on their 1/4 inch thick disc.
To use a rubber backer for sanding discs, polishing wheels, fiber discs, you have to remove the backing nut. It is retained by a rubber O ring and is easy to remove. The instructions are in the manual, but are easy to miss. There are no spanner wrench holes in the locking nut of the Dewalt rubber backer. That means you have to use finger pressure to tighten/remove it. There are other rubber backers that do have spanner holes in their locking nuts, like the Bosch MG0450 4-1/2-Inch Sander Backing Pad with Lock Nut which I think are easier to use. You’d probably need another spanner wrench for the 3rd party backers. I use this one, Adjustable Pin Wrench because it’s cheap but works just fine.
You can also remove the guard, if needed to get at certain jobs. If you do, just remember that the on switch is locked on, so if you drop the tool, it could be chasing you around the room.
My only complaints are minor. I wish that there were a threaded socket on top of the grinder for the handle, in addition to the 2 on the sides. The arbor lock button is in a rather awkward place for me.
This grinder seems like a great value and I’m very pleased to have one.
Works as advertised. Plenty of power. Not much else to say. It spins… fast!
A grinder is a very handy tool to have on hand, and it’s cheap;
– Cuts metal and stone!
– Removes paint
– Grinds/sands metal or wood
– Sculpt wood or stone
– Fit cutting discs, grinding discs or pads, sanding pads or wire wheels
– You can probably even use it to buff wax a car
So… it’s handy for all those little tasks that you don’t really have a good tool to do:
– Remove the paint from a metal porch railing
– Cut off the bolts from a toilet installation
– Grind the sharp edges of bolts on a playground set or childrens toy
– Sculpt wood to make unique objects
– Sand anything
An angle grinder can be your “tool of last resort” for a whole bunch of tasks. Keep one on hand.
I own all kinds of DeWalt power tools and have been satisfied with all except this one. It has all the power I needed and everything else works fine but… the switch sticks in the on position. I bought it to use with a wood carving attachment and it does a good job of handling that. I have not had much luck with getting a replacement as yet.
The grinding wheel that comes with it has a 7/8″ arbor hole, but the grinder arbor is 5/8.” There is a backing plate with a raised portion to enable acceptance of 7/8″ wheels. However, THREADED 7/8″ accessories won’t work. I bought mine for wood carving with a Lancelot, which has a 5/8″ arbor hole, which is very thick, and which required me to pull off the backing plate. Said plate is hard to remove (very tight fit; requires pliers) and first-time users might not even know that it is removable.
I’ll write more later; just thought I should get this on the record in case someone needs to know, as it’s not explained well in the manual. I’ve only had this thing a short time; so far, so good. No reason not to give it 5 stars if it pans out.
PS. I published the identical review for the reconditioned model, which is the one I bought, but everything I had to say about that applies to, and is useful for, this one.
