| The DCG413R2 20V Max XR angle grinder. |
The new DCG413R2 20V Max XR angle grinder features a brake, E-Clutch System and Kickback Brake. The brake quickly brings the wheel to a stop in two seconds or less when the trigger is released. The E-Clutch System automatically shuts down the motor when a wheel pinch is detected.
The Kickback Brake incorporates both features, activating in the event a pinch or stall occurs, engaging the brake at maximum force and shutting the tool down; effectively reducing the force exerted toward the user.
Additionally, the grinder features a One-Touch guard, which allows for single-action adjustments to change guard position. The grinder also comes with two removable mesh screens that help to block debris from entering the tool during use.
Finally, the grinder features an on/off trigger switch that has a no-volt release function to stop accidental turn-on. In the event of a power outage or other unexpected shut down, the trigger switch mudt be cycled off and on to restart tool.
At only 3.75 pounds (tool only) and 12.2 inches long, the tool achieves up to 850 mwo.
