Anti-vibration Side Handle
The anti-vibration side handle offers added comfort
by absorbing the vibrations caused by the tool.
Dust Ejection System (fig. 1)
The dust ejection system (K) prevents dust pile-up
around the guard and motor inlet, and minimises the
amount of dust entering the motor housing.
Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows a slow speed build-up
to avoid an initial jerk when starting. This feature is
particularly useful when working in confined spaces.
No-Volt
The No-volt function stops the grinder restarting
without the switch being cycled if there is a break in
the power supply.
Electronic Clutch
DWE4227
The electronic torque limiting clutch reduces
the maximum torque reaction transmitted to the
operator in case of jamming of a disc. This feature
also prevents the gearing and electric motor from
stalling. The torque limiting clutch has been factory-
set and cannot be adjusted.
