Ignore the on/off switch

The grinder itself is fine but the on/off switch is difficult to use. I had a hard time turning it on, had to press hard to move the switch forward to the on position and latch it. Oddly enough, it's very easy to turn it off. Really too easy. Many times I accidentally touched it while working and accidentally turned off the grinder.

Pros
  • Powerful 7.5A motor delivers 11,000rpm for high performance
Cons
  • Piggy bank price

good, but Dewalt D28402 is better

Good quality tool seems to hold up. It's 7.5A, not as powerful as the 10A Dewalt D28402, but still enough for most jobs. The Dewalt has a paddle switch that needs to be held down, while the Makita has a slide switch that stays on. For some tasks it is useful to be able to block them. But there may be a little more chance of injury. Makita requires a screwdriver to adjust the position of the guard, while Dewalt has a quick release that requires no tools - a Dewalt advantage. The Makita works…

Pros
  • Labyrinth design seals and protects pinion and bearings from contamination, extends tool life
Cons
  • So far so good
