The DeWalt DCG440B 60V MAX* 7-inch brushless cordless angle grinder is a powerful tool for all your metal and concrete cutting, wire brushing, and grinding needs. With an output of up to 2,300 unit watts and 3 HP, it delivers up to 30% more torque than the DCG418 60V MAX* grinder, allowing you to power through tough jobs with a no-load speed of up to 6,500 RPM. Safety is a top priority. The grinder features an E-Clutch® that shuts down the motor immediately when a pinch or stall is detected and a Kickback Brake™ that engages when a bind-up event is sensed, preventing damage and injury. It also has a quick wheel stoppage function, stopping the wheel instantly when the trigger is released. The versatile pipeline grip gearcase cover provides a great gripping surface for precise pipeline grinding and wire brushing. Additionally, it supports Tool Connect™ asset management (chip sold separately), making it easy to manage on the jobsite. This kit includes a 7-inch grinder, a Type 27 guard, a side handle, a hex key, a threaded outer flange nut, and a DW4547 7-inch x 1/4-inch grinding wheel.
Using the DeWalt DCG440B grinder is straightforward. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Then, select the appropriate grinding wheel for your task and attach it securely using the provided tools. When starting a job, hold the grinder firmly with both hands, using the side handle for better control. Keep the grinder at the right angle and apply steady pressure as you work. Remember to wear appropriate safety gear, like safety glasses and gloves, to protect yourself from sparks and debris. When a pinch, stall, or bind-up is detected, the grinder will automatically shut off to prevent accidents. After use, always switch off the grinder and wait for the wheel to stop completely before putting it away. To maintain your grinder, clean it regularly to remove dust and debris. Check the grinding wheel for wear and tear and replace it if necessary. Also, keep the battery in good condition by following the manufacturer's charging and storage instructions. With proper use and maintenance, your DeWalt DCG440B grinder will serve you well for a long time.
