- What discs fit the Genesis GAG745?
- It takes 4.5-inch (115 mm) discs with a 7/8-inch arbor, and the M14 spindle accepts standard grinding wheels, cutting discs, flap discs and wire cups. Buy discs rated for at least 11,000 rpm.
- Is 7 amps enough for grinding welds?
- Yes for light to medium work. It has more power than typical 6 amp budget grinders, but heavy continuous grinding on thick steel will slow it and heat it faster than an 8 to 10 amp grinder.
- Does it have variable speed?
- No. It runs at a single speed up to 11,000 rpm, so it is not ideal for polishing or work that needs slow speed control.
- Can I use it with a diamond blade on masonry?
- Yes, with a 4.5-inch diamond blade rated for the rpm. Use the guard and eye and hearing protection, and expect dust, so a mask helps.
- Is it a good first angle grinder?
- It is a reasonable starter for occasional cutting and grinding. It is simple and takes common accessories, but it lacks soft-start and anti-vibration features, so take care when starting a cut.
- What comes in the box?
- Typically the grinder, a side handle, a wrench and the guard. Check the listing for the exact included accessories.
