Description of π₯ Unleash the Power: Makita GA7011C 7 Inch Electronic Grinder for Superior Performance
Powerful 15.0 AMP motor delivers 6,000 RPM to complete the most challenging applications. Constant speed control automatically applies additional power to the motor to maintain speed under load. Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life. Electronic current limiter helps protect the motor from overload. Tool-less wheel guard for more convenient adjustments.
Much smaller and lighter than the standard 7 inch grinder but does the same job. It has a slow start, which is important in tight quarters. The coffee grinder does not turn when switched on. We get rid of our big grinders in our welding shop and buy this grinder. It is much safer and more convenient for the operator.
Update 10/10/2018: Serviced by Makita under warranty. The technician said the nut holding the gear was loose, he fixed it and the mill is great! Source Review 1 πUsed to grind the pipe, lightly indent it with a 1/8th grinding wheel. Took about 5 minutes of full use before the "clutch" failed. It spins, but as soon as you start grinding the disc, it "jumps" and stops.
It's Not Β£7.5! It has no rotating gear case! I shipped my car overseas and ended up getting a call saying it was 2 pounds too big and didn't have a rotating gearbox. I also bought a Makita case. I called an Amazon customer to see what they could do, the rep was no help and to top it off she said I could get a restocking fee if I returned the car after 30 days. Worst experience ever!
