1 out of 5 stars spindle thread out of spec   February 24, 2005
Travisji Corcoran (Arlington, MA USA)
3 out of 6 found this review helpful

I bought two DeWalt grinders simultaneously: the 28499, and the smaller 402. Both claim to have 5/8"-11 threaded spindles...yet grinding and cutting disks in this size fit on the 402, but NOT on the 28499. I took the locking nut from the 402 and tried to thread that onto the 28499...no go.

I called the factory, they confirmed that both spindles should be the same.

Bottom line: the spindle is out of spec.

The grinder is useless as is.



5 out of 5 stars A great machine   May 3, 2004
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I used an old Skil saw to cut brick and block, but after finally melting the internals beyond repair I was forced to look for an alternative.

I chose this machine based on the flexability of the 7" and 9" guards that come standard.

The machine has plenty of power cutting red bricks with far more ease than a Makita chop saw.

I love the ability to rotate the main/rear grip - it makes this grinder far more versatile and comfortable than other I have used in the past.

The only downside to this grinder is the optional 7" cutting wheel guard is pricey.
