Makita releases a new 4-1/2-inch paddle switch angle grinder, model GA4534. The GA4534 combines durability and ergonomics with a Makita-built 6 AMP motor to deliver more output power for increased performance for masons, welders, shipyard workers, automotive technicians, stone/tile workers, HVAC, electricians, and more. The new GA4534 is engineered with non-protruding brush holders and an innovative motor housing that reduce the barrel diameter to only 2-3/16. In addition, the GA4534 has an ergonomic grip for added comfort, and weighs only 4.2 lbs. for reduced operator fatigue. The side handle is positioned at an increased 20-degree angle for added comfort and control, and the paddle switch has a no lock-on for added user preference.
