12 AMP Power with SJS to Protect Gears
The 9564CV is powered by a 12 AMP motor with soft start for smoother start-ups. The five-stage variable speed dial (2,800 – 10,500 RPM) allows the user to match the RPM to the application. The electronic limiter stops the motor and reduces accidental motor overload and burnout, and the electronic speed control maintains consistent speed under load. Labyrinth construction protects the motor with a complex set of channels, prohibiting dust and contamination. In addition, the protective zig-zag varnish seals the motor and bearings from dust and debris by creating a barrier under rotation. The 9564CV is engineered with SJS, an innovation from Makita that protects the gears by automatically disengaging the motor should the grinding wheel accidentally catch or bind.

Comfort and Ergonomics
The 9564CV is built with comfort and ergonomic features for extended use. The grinder weighs just 4 pounds with a lock-on switch for easy operation. In addition, the side handle can be easily installed on either side of the tool, and the “tool-less” wheel guard adjustment provides easy clamping.

Variable Speed for Stone Work
The 9564CV is a versatile and powerful grinder with variable speed, allowing the user to set the RPM to the material. The variable speed control feature makes the 9564CV ideal for stone work, including polishing and grinding. The 9564CV is just another example of Makita’s commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering.

About Makita’s Super Joint System (SJS)
Super Joint System (SJS) is an innovation from Makita engineering where the motor armature and spiral bevel gear are linked by a coil spring. If the grinding wheel catches or binds, the coil spring relaxes and disengages the gears from the motor. As the grinding wheel stops, the gears and motor are protected. Makita’s growing line of SJS-equipped grinders includes models ranging from a 1/4″ die grinder to a 7-inch angle grinder.

    DO NOT buy reconditioned tools like this from “CPO Makita”. I made the mistake of purchasing this grinder from them, and they sent a tool that was DOA – dead on arrival. When I contacted them, they refused to replace or refund the order! Somehow, they managed to prevent any negative feedback as well, so don’t be fooled by the 96% positive number, it is obviously rigged (because it doesn’t include my experience at the least).

    As for Makita grinders, they are above average, although I wouldn’t know how this particular model works by comparison, because the one I received was DOA.

    Makita brand has yet to do me wrong. Have only done a few small jobs with this new 4.5″ grinder. I have used similar grinders in the 1980s and 1990s. On some jobs we would run the grinders 8 hours a day 5 days per week. Very reliable. Until a Makita chokes the chicken prematurely, I will never look to another brand for power tools.

    I’m a contractor, and I buy the best tools I can find. Money is a distant second to quality, power, control, etc. I bought this to replace the Makita grinder that broke after only 20 years of commercial use (joke). I was going to get the same model, but decided to upgrade to this one. The soft start and variable speed were a big improvement. Much more control. This one has more power too so it doesn’t bog down. Excellent device! I have large glove sized hands and the barrel grip was fine for me. If you have smaller hands, you might want to check for hand fit before purchase.

    Best grinder for the money. Well worth the extra money for a 12 amp grinder. It will never let you down and can tackle the toughest jobs!

    This is my first grinder. I bought it to do a friends concrete countertop. It works well…not too heavy and quite comfortable. I would recommend it.
