Grinder offers more cutting speed when cutting 5\/8 Inch rebar that helps in cutting a wide range of materials such as tile, concrete, pipe, conduit and more. Electric current limiter reduces the overloading of motor in high torque applications. Automatic speed change mechanism adjusts the speed and torque automatically depending upon the applications. Electric brake ceases the grinding in just 2 seconds or less. If the rotation of the wheel comes to a stop, the active feedback-sensing technology turns off the motor immediately. Lock-on sliding switch offers good operating convenience and the quick guard rotation facilitates tool-less adjustments. Anti-restart mechanism prevents sudden initiation of the motor when the battery is inserted while the sliding switch is still on. Soft-start mechanism negates start-up reaction for easy initiation of the motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOUTPOWER: Makita-built brushless motor along with 40V max XGT® battery combine to deliver powerful grinding and up to 60% faster cutting speed than predecessor models*\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOUTSMART: Electric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOUTLAST: Electronic current limiter helps protect the motor from overload in high torque application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActive Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlide switch with lock-on for operator convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick guard rotation allows easy tool-less adjustment for increased productivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- more --\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWhat our Experts Think\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex flex-col text-sm pb-25\"\u003e\n\u003carticle class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none [--shadow-height:45px] has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none has-data-writing-block:-mt-(--shadow-height) has-data-writing-block:pt-(--shadow-height) [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\" data-turn-id=\"request-69a3d451-c3ac-8322-9423-5de775bd49ad-8\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-60\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\" data-turn=\"assistant\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-10 [--thread-content-margin:--spacing(4)] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(6)] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(16)] px-(--thread-content-margin)\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"14ec52ba-f735-48e8-822d-d53764687ddc\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-5-mini\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full wrap-break-word light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"1522\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"352\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"133\" data-end=\"352\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"133\" data-end=\"165\"\u003eCordless, Corded‑Grade Power\u003c\/strong\u003e — XGT brushless motor delivers performance comparable to a 13 A corded grinder with up to \u003cstrong data-start=\"257\" data-end=\"286\"\u003e60 % faster cutting speed\u003c\/strong\u003e on rebar and metal tasks. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"353\" data-end=\"553\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"355\" data-end=\"553\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"355\" data-end=\"381\"\u003eSmooth, Safe Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e — \u003cstrong data-start=\"384\" data-end=\"402\"\u003eElectric brake\u003c\/strong\u003e stops the wheel in \u003cem data-start=\"422\" data-end=\"434\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e≈2 seconds\u003c\/em\u003e, boosting productivity and safety during frequent start‑stop cutting\/grinding. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"777\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"556\" data-end=\"777\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"556\" data-end=\"586\"\u003eSmart Protection \u0026amp;
