The M18 FUEL 4½-in./5-in. dual-trigger braking grinder from Milwaukee Tool features a trigger on the braking grinder’s main barrel and a secondary trigger on the side handle, requiring two hands to stay on the tool for operation. This dual-trigger activation, a permanent side handle, and AUTOSTOP kickback control help enhance control and safety on the job site.
The side handle is permanent to the tool, ensuring user compliance. For added user control and accessibility in hard-to-reach areas, the handle can be positioned in 15 different orientations, tilting from 0 to 90 degrees and pivoting to the left, top, and right. An electronic clutch detects extreme movement and shuts off the tool, helping prevent injuries from severe kickback.
