The AB Tools 950W Angle Grinder (SIL555) is designed for tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable power tool for metal, stone, and concrete fabrication. Its primary benefit is the combination of a powerful 950-watt motor and a compact 115mm form factor, making it ideal for both precision cutting and heavy-duty grinding, though users should note that its high speed requires consistent maintenance of the cooling vents to prevent overheating during prolonged operation.

This tool is designed specifically for 115mm (4-1/2 inch) discs.
Yes, it includes a safety guard to protect the user from debris and sparks during operation.
The unit comes fitted with a standard UK 3-pin plug for immediate use in UK mains outlets.
Angle grinders are designed for grinding and cutting metal, stone, and concrete; using them with wood-cutting blades is not recommended due to high kickback risks.
Change the disc whenever it becomes worn, cracked, or if it no longer cuts effectively. Never use a disc that has been dropped or exhibits structural damage.
Yes, it features a 2-position auxiliary handle that can be swapped to either side of the grinder body.
Check the power supply and ensure the plug is fully seated. Verify that the safety release switch is fully engaged.
Check that the disc is tightened correctly and centered on the spindle. Ensure the disc is not damaged or cracked.
Clear dust and debris from the cooling vents. Reduce the pressure applied to the workpiece to allow the motor to maintain its speed.
To set up the grinder, ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply. Use the spindle lock to secure the shaft, unscrew the outer nut, place your 115mm disc (with a 22.2mm bore) onto the M14 thread, and tighten firmly. The 2-position handle can be screwed into either the left or right threaded hole on the gear housing based on your comfort. For care, regularly use compressed air to clear dust from the ventilation slots, as debris accumulation can restrict airflow and impact motor longevity. Check the carbon brushes periodically and ensure the power cord is free from cuts or fraying before every use.
