Dewalt DWE43840CN Angle Grinder With Rat Tail Kickback Brake, 7

Using your DeWalt 7 - inch angle grinder is quite straightforward. First, make sure all the parts are properly attached. The side handle should be tightened well for a secure grip. When starting the tool, remember it has a two - stage trigger, so you need to perform two actions to get it going. For pipeline grinding and wire brushing, you can use the soft - covered gear case grip for better control. Just hold it firmly and you're good to go. For other tasks, use the side handle as your main secondary grip. When you sense a pinch, stall, or bind - up, the kickback brake will automatically engage to stop the wheel and shut off the motor, which is a great safety feature. If there's a power outage, don't worry. You just need to turn the trigger switch off and then on to restart the tool. Now, for maintenance. Keep the grinder clean after each use. Wipe off any dust or debris. Since it has a brushless motor, you don't need to worry about changing brushes. But still, check the motor regularly for any signs of overheating. Also, check the wheel and the side handle for any loose parts. If you notice anything wrong, stop using the tool immediately and get it checked. And always remember, safety first. Use the lanyard attachment point if you're working in a high - risk area (though you'll need to get your own lanyard).
