40V max XGT Brushless Performance
The grinder is powered by Makita's 40V max XGT platform, which is engineered for high-output cordless equipment. Its brushless motor efficiently converts battery power into usable grinding performance while eliminating conventional carbon brushes that require periodic replacement.
Electronic controls help regulate motor operation and protect the tool during demanding applications.
5-Inch Grinding and Cutting Capacity
The 5-inch wheel platform provides a versatile size for professional metalworking and construction tasks. With the appropriate compatible accessory, the grinder can be used for applications such as grinding welds, removing material, cutting metal, and surface preparation.
Always select a wheel or accessory that is specifically rated for the intended application, material, and grinder speed.
X-LOCK Accessory System
The integrated X-LOCK interface allows compatible accessories to be installed and removed without a conventional accessory wrench. The click-in/click-out design can significantly simplify wheel changes when moving between different applications.
This is especially useful for professionals who frequently switch between grinding, cutting, and surface-preparation accessories.
Note: Only compatible X-LOCK accessories should be used with the grinder.
Paddle-Switch Operation
The paddle switch provides convenient control from the grinder's handle area. It is designed to allow the operator to activate the tool while maintaining a firm grip on the grinder.
The switch configuration is particularly useful for applications where controlled operation and quick access to the power control are important.
Electric Brake
The integrated electric brake helps stop the grinding wheel quickly after the switch is released. Faster wheel stoppage can make it easier to reposition the tool between operations and improves overall handling.
Active Feedback-Sensing Technology
Makita's Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT) monitors wheel rotation. If the wheel is suddenly forced to stop because of a binding or similar condition, the system is designed to shut down the motor.
This electronic protection feature helps reduce the potential for uncontrolled tool movement caused by sudden wheel stoppage.
Variable-Speed Control
Variable-speed operation allows the operator to adjust the grinder's speed according to the accessory and application.
Lower speeds can be useful for controlled finishing and certain surface-preparation tasks, while higher speeds are appropriate for applications and accessories designed for the grinder's higher operating range.
Soft Start
The soft-start function gradually increases motor speed when the grinder is switched on. This helps reduce the initial startup movement and provides smoother control when beginning an operation.
Electronic Protection
The grinder incorporates electronic safeguards designed to help protect the tool and battery during demanding use. These systems can respond to conditions such as excessive load, overheating, and battery over-discharge.
An anti-restart function also helps prevent unintended operation after an interruption in power.
Cordless Jobsite Convenience
The 40V max XGT battery platform eliminates the need for an extension cord, allowing the grinder to be used in locations where electrical outlets are unavailable or inconvenient.
This cordless mobility is particularly useful for construction sites, fabrication shops, maintenance work, installation projects, and remote job locations.
