The DeWALT DWE4117-QS angle grinder is a compact handheld tool with a 950 W motor that reaches up to 12,000 RPM, designed for cutting, grinding and surface preparation. It accepts a 125 mm (12.5 cm) disc and has a total weight of 1.99 kg, providing a balance of power and maneuverability. The tool’s black-and-yellow housing and robust construction suit regular use on metal and masonry materials while maintaining a size that fits tight workspaces.

Advantages

The 950 W motor delivers consistent speed under load for efficient material removal and cutting. High no-load speed (up to 12,000 RPM) enables fast grinding and clean cutting lines with compatible discs. The relatively low weight of 1.99 kg reduces user fatigue during extended use. DeWALT’s build quality and ergonomic design offer reliable handling and straightforward operation in professional and DIY contexts.

How to use

Select a disc suitable for the task and material, ensure the disc is rated for the grinder’s maximum speed, and tighten the accessory according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and gloves. Hold the grinder with both hands, keep a firm grip, and maintain a stable stance. Start the tool and allow it to reach full speed before engaging the workpiece; use steady, controlled movements and avoid side loading on cutting discs. After use, allow the disc to stop completely before setting the tool down and disconnect from power before changing accessories or performing maintenance.

Recommendations

For best results, match disc type to the material (cutting wheels for metal, masonry discs for stone/brick, flap discs for surface finishing) and choose discs rated for at least 12,000 RPM. Regularly inspect guards, vents and power cord for damage, replace worn discs, and follow local safety regulations for grinding operations.
