  • 40Vmax XGT flat-head angle grinder with professional features including anti-restart function, electric brake and two-stage safety paddle switch
  • Reduced access angle at the tip enables excellent workability for deburring in confined or recessed areas.
  • Equipped with a newly designed tool-less wheel cover for flat-head angle grinders, allowing access at angles as small as 39°.
  • High work efficiency that exceeds competing models thanks to high power 40Vmax XGT battery and Makita purpose built brushless motor.
  • Optimized spindle bearing layout allows for a smaller access angle, delivering high operation efficiency even in work at recessed corners such as removal of weld marks on steel frame joints of narrow, acute angle.
  • Active Feedback sensing Technology (AFT) automatically shuts down the tool if there is a sudden drop in rotation speed (e.g. kick-back)
  • Electric brake stops wheel or disc 3-5 seconds after switch is released for increased operator safety
  • Two-stage safety paddle switch ensures user safety.
  • Slim, ergonomic soft rubber grip design for vibration absorption and comfortable operation
  • Soft start feature gradually increases speed to eliminate start up shock
  • Anti-restart feature prevents accidental start up of tool during battery changing when switch is locked in the on position.
  • Variable speed dial enables operator to adjust wheel speed based on materials or application
  • eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) offers maximum protection against dust, debris and liquids for optimal performance in extreme conditions
  • Tool-less wheel cover allows for quick and easy adjustments without the need for a wrench.
