Review: This grinder is awesome it's smooth start takes the strain of your wrist, lot's of power I use it for dressing/ finishing cement just works good
Review: As far as first impressions, this grinder blew my expectations out of the water. I got the Makita 4 1/2" 10 amp angle grinder (fantastic machine) for Christmas and I've been using it for 5 months now, and it chews through steel like some 7" harbor freight grinders at work, but it feels lighter. That grinder set the bar pretty darn high. So naturally, I went for another beefy Makita when I wanted a 7", and I got this one. (with money from graduation presents, do you sense a trend?) Oh my goodness, I'm so glad I bought this. This thing is a friggin beast. However I'm a small guy (140lb) and I simply cannot effectively grind for long on something if it's not flat, I just can't control it comfortably. But that's why I have my 4 1/2" grinder. But when I have A LOT of flat grinding to do, there is not a single tool that can beat this behemoth. The only thing that can stop this grinder is... well, nothing. Also, this does have a switch locking mechanism. If you pull the safety switch, (in front of the trigger) and pull the trigger to start it, then release the trigger but hold the switch, it'll lock it on so you don't have to hold the trigger down, and to release, you just pull the trigger again. This is awesome, but you do have to be careful, because if it's locked on and you plug it in, it'll hop and around like a rabbit with a broken leg. And it'll scare the crap out of your boss. Ask me how I know. In conclusion, this is a beast of a tool and the weight resembles it. You barely have to put any pressure on it when grinding flat. It lends itself to very fast material removal in a flat position. However, the weight of it hinders any other position, and that is definitely something to consider, especially if you're not a 250 lb barbarian. But I will say it tag-teams well with the 10 amp 4 1/2" Makita. In the end it's well worth the money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come in a case and if so what type?**
A: No It comes in a cardboard box

**Q: Does this come with a 5/8" arbor?**
A: The  user manual (page 2) clearly says 5/8" spindle thread for all 7" and 9" models.   All my heavy duty Makita grinders have been 5/8" arbor.  Why someone says 7/8" is baffling--possibly a typo.  I need to find replacement for my very old n GA7911.  Amazing the 7021 is offered at such a reasonable price.

**Q: Can you put a 9" grinding wheel on this?  What other size grinders can be used?**
A: I am not going to encourage you to use a 9” wheel on this, but I will say take a look at the spec sheet on their site. This has the same specs as the 9”, just a different model number and skirt size. If you think about that, and the specs are 100% accurate, both models having the same power and RPMs should treat both 7 and 9” discs the exact same. Double check the specs, and then still don’t do it. There could always be something I’m missing. If you are going to do it anyway, though, at least get a 9” skirt before trying. I doubt using an underpowered grinder with a larger disc will cause anything to fly apart. I suspect if there was damage, the motor would bog down or be damaged. But be safe (and don’t try it).

**Q: Would you know if the back handle (where the switch is located) rotates?**
A: Copied from description. 

The switch handle rotates 90 degrees left and right, while the side handle may be configured in any of 3 positions to promote user comfort and control.

Rugged and beautiful all at the same time. Used it to take down a cinder brick wall filled with concrete and rebar. Performed excellently.
