The G12VE 4-1/2" 12-Amp angle grinder with AC Brushless features over 1,300 Watts of input power.The Brushless Motor allows the tool to operate over an extra long extension cord with reduced power loss, and also eliminates maintenance of armatures or carbon brushes. This AC Brushless grinder delivers superior performance when powered by a generator due to an internal inverter circuit that regulates uneven power supply for ultimate jobsite performance. It utilizes zero voltage restart protection that prevents it from restarting if power is temporarily lost while the tool is in operation. Electronic overload protection shuts the motor off in case of a bind or overload. The G12VE also features a variable speed switch to set the RPMs to suit the application, as well as kick-back reduction and a low-profile, compact design including an ultra-slim grip diameter (thanks to the Brushless motor) for better control and less fatigue during continuous. Recommended uses include stone polishing, surface finishing, rust and paint removal, light grinding, concrete finishing, wire cup and wire wheel applications.

• - Ultra efficient AC Brushless motor that permits the use of extra long extension cords with reduced power loss, extends product life and eliminates maintenance of armatures or carbon brushes


• - Superior performance when using a generator due to an internal inverter circuit that regulates uneven power supply


• - Powerful 12-Amp motor produces a powerful 1,300 watts input


• - power for tough grinding applications


• - Ultra slim grip circumference (due to the Brushless motor) that reduces fatigue and improves control, especially during continuous use applications


• - Variable speed switch allows the user to determine the best speed for the application


• - Electronic overload protection is an electronic feature that stops the motor when too much pressure is applied.. When the tool shuts off, the switch must be turned to the "off" position and then turned back to the "on" position to resume work. This not only protects the motor from overload, but it protects the gearbox from damage and protects the user from possible injury from accidental restart


• - Soft-start reduces the load felt by the user at start-up


• - Slide switch with trigger lock-on for comfortable and continuous operation


• - Kick-back reduction quickly shuts off power in the event of a bound wheel, extending the life of the gears
