The GD0601 is engineered with a powerful AC\/DC motor with 25,000 RPM in a slim body design, and a conveniently located slide-switch for on\/off function. This combination of power and ease-of-use features makes the GD0601 ideal for a range of grinding tasks. \n\n3.5 AMP Motor Delivers 25,000 RPM\nThe GD0601 is engineered with a Makita-built industrial motor that delivers 25,000 RPM. The motor is housed with front and rear air vents to run cooler under continuous use, extending the life of the grinder. The GD0601 includes an AC\/DC switch for use with alternative power sources. \n\nMotor Protection Features for Longer Tool Life\nTo protect the motor from debris, the grinder is built with a labyrinth construction that seals the motor and bearings by creating a complex set of channels, extending the life of the tool. In addition, the armature is sealed by a protective zig-zag varnish which prevents contamination by creating a barrier under rotation. \n\nComfort and Ergonomics\nMakita has engineered comfort and ergonomics into the grinder for professional use all day long. The slide-switch is positioned on the small circumference barrel grip for improved handling and operation. The grinder has solid aluminum housing with a stepped-neck design, and is protected by a removable rubber boot. The front and rear air vents are engineered to keep the motor cool and blow debris away from the user for improved visibility. \n\nVersatile Design for a Range of Applications\nThe GD0601 is built for a range of applications including pipe fittings and small-scale grinding. It is ideal for welders, plumbers, ship builders, automotive, HVAC, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowerful 3.5 AMP motor delivers 25,000 RPM to handle the most challenging applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLower noise at 73dB(A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall diameter barrel grip for added comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional air-flow vents channel the tool's air output away from the user's face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound-shaped collet nut is engineered to prevent damages\/scratches to workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZig-zag varnish protects the armature coil from dust and debris for longer motor life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC\/DC switch for use with alternative power source\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlide switch with lock-on for operator convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubberized gear housing for increased operator comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStepped neck for working in tights spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMax.
