Metabo Corp. (www.metabousa.com) designed its new 6-in. angle grinder/cutoff machine with a non-locking paddle switch. The company says the design of the WEP14-150 Quick positions the user's hand far away from the grinding wheel. The electronic grinder includes Metabo's Tacho-Constamatic speed stabilization technology that allows the grinder to work at nearly 100 percent of the no-load speed of 9,000 rpm, and to the grinder's full-rated load of 12 amps.
