This grinder is perfect for jobsites where user protection is crucial, thanks to its PERFORM & PROTECT™ features like Kickback Brake, E-CLUTCH®, and LANYARD READY™ attachment points.
Using this DeWalt grinder is easy. First, make sure you've attached the side handle properly. Then, insert the hex key to secure the wheel. When you're ready to start, press the 2-stage trigger. Remember, it needs two actions to activate.
As for safety, always wear protective gear like goggles and gloves. The POWER-LOSS RESET® feature means if there's a power outage, you have to cycle the trigger switch to restart the tool. Also, be aware that the Kickback Brake will engage if it senses a problem, which is a great safety feature but can be a bit sudden.
For maintenance, since it has a brushless motor, you don't need to worry about brush replacement. But regularly check the wheel for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice the wheel isn't stopping within 2 seconds on average when you release the switch, it might be time to replace it with a DWA8914 wheel. And if you plan to use it in a high - risk area, you can attach a lanyard to the LANYARD READY™ point (lanyard not included).
