Product Information

Full details

The HiKOKI G18DSL2 is a professional-grade 115mm angle grinder designed for tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable, maneuverable tool for cutting and grinding in tight spaces. Its key benefit is the reinforced high gear ratio, which significantly reduces motor strain and burnout risk during intensive tasks. While it excels in ergonomics and safety, users should note that it is sold as a bare unit, meaning you must already own or purchase compatible 18V HiKOKI batteries and a charger separately to operate it.

FAQs

Does the G18DSL2 come with a battery?

No, this model is sold as a bare unit, so battery and charger are sold separately.

What is the disc size for this grinder?

This unit is compatible with 115mm diameter discs with a 22mm center arbor.

Is this tool suitable for heavy-duty metal grinding?

Yes, its higher gear ratio is designed to handle intensive grinding tasks while protecting the motor from burnout.

What safety features are included?

The grinder features built-in restart protection to prevent accidental activation after a battery change or power interruption.

Can I use this for cutting tile?

Yes, provided you use an appropriate diamond blade rated for 115mm angle grinders and at least 9,000/min speed.

How do I change the disc?

Press and hold the spindle lock button located on the gear head, unscrew the outer flange with a pin wrench, swap the disc, and tighten the flange back securely.

Troubleshooting

The tool will not start when the switch is flipped.

Ensure the battery is fully seated. If it was inserted while the switch was on, toggle the switch to 'off' and then back to 'on' to reset the restart protection.

Excessive vibration during use.

Check that the grinding or cutting disc is mounted centrally and the flange nut is tightened securely.

Motor seems to lose power quickly.

Check the battery charge level and ensure the air vents are not clogged with debris, which can cause the motor to overheat and throttle performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the G18DSL2, ensure you have a fully charged HiKOKI 18V battery. Slide the battery into the base until it clicks securely. Attach the 115mm disc by pressing the spindle lock button, unscrewing the flange, placing your disc on the 22mm arbor, and tightening the flange firmly.

Compatibility: This tool is compatible with most 115mm standard metal cutting and grinding discs with a 22mm arbor hole. Always verify the disc's RPM rating is at least 9,000/min to ensure safe operation.

Care: Clean the ventilation slots regularly using compressed air to prevent dust buildup. Inspect the gear cover periodically for debris and ensure the switch operates smoothly without obstruction.
