Dust Collection Accessories

I bought this for a master bathroom tile project. I had no problems with that. The only thing that disappointed me is that Bosch decided not to make dust caps for this particular model and for that reason I am giving 4 stars. BUT good news. Through trial and error I finally found dust attachments that work with this angle grinder without modification. The following two Makita products will fit the Bosch GWS9-45 4-1/2" Small Angle Grinder without modification: (1) Makita 196846-1 Dust Collection Point Guard 5" https://www.amazon.com/gp/ product /B0042CD9TG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1EDIT: It works like a charm! The ZERO dust and the plunge cut and depth control settings are amazing. Worth the money if you mess up a DIY tile job (my first time) and need to replace a tile set that is too low. (2) Makita 195236-5 4-1/2" - 5" Dust Cover .amazon.com/gp/product/B004F5JCG4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Note: There is a dust cover on the grind surface. You must purchase a 4 inch cup wheel to use it. Anything larger will extend beyond the detachable section (for sanding flush with a vertical wall, baseboard, etc.) and may also extend in height beyond the cover (the 5-inch Bosch mug I got first bought failed on both counts). these Makita tips I am satisfied with the GWS9-45. It's a shame about Bosch that he doesn't give any tips for this product.
