Review: Not variable speed. Great standard angle grinder. - This is not the big-brother 11 amp version. This model is a standard duty grinder. Which means reasonable torque and speed. You can start this when holding it with one hand. Ripped through my first job, removing old caulk and paint from brickwork around windows. Do be aware that this is not variable speed. One terrific, consistent speed. I’m sure glad that I didn’t go for a cordless model. The inconvenience of swapping batteries often (I hear grinders go through batteries quickly) and the cost of owning enough 8 amp batteries made the decision easy. Buying a DeWalt is like buying a Honda. If you have ever used a grinder before you can start using the DeWalt right away. Do be aware that the grinder does not come with a spanner wrench. I picked up the $6 adjustable one I found on desertcart. Thumbs up. It does come with an Allen wrench and a heavy duty grinder wheel. I did not add the additional hand holding attachment but it does come in the box. The manual, too. Great sub-$100 tool that carries the DeWalt brand name. Highly recommend.
Review: Great tool - DeWalt makes great tools and own a lot of them, with this grinder I strongly suggest that the buyer have an experienced person show them how to setup the grinder

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the switch stay on hen you let go or do you hold it while grinding?**
A: The switch can do either.  You can press it into a position where it will stay on while you use it, or if you press it into a different position, it will go off when you release it. There are certain times when either of these positions are useful, but be sure you can get the grinder to stop when you want it to when the switch is in the 'run' position.  Be careful when the grinder is running like this.

**Q: What kind of grinding discs does it take?**
A: 4 to 4 1/2 inch discs ( blades )
Multiple kinds from masonry to diamond blades. Cut tile to cinderblock and concrete. Available anywhere tools are sold.

**Q: Do the grinding wheels come with it?**
A: MIne came with a Dewalt 1/4" thick grinding wheel, But I wouldn't choose a grinder based on that! This one is great either way and wheels are cheap

**Q: Are the brushes replaceable?**
A: I haven't had a chance to take it apart therefore can not give you a good answer to that. But you should look at a very important factor. The fact that the grinders are so affordable it should not even matter much, unless you are thinking to buy it for 20+ years. I am working in a metal/fabrication shop as a welder for 5+ years now and never had a problem with grinders of good quality like: dewalt, ridgid and others. And i am abusing them on a daily bases quite systematically. If i was to take a guess then i would say that most likely it has the brushes on it, otherwise they would have marketed it as being brush-less
