FAQs

What type of batteries are compatible with the DGA513Z?

The DGA513Z is compatible with Makita 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries.

Does the DGA513Z come with a battery and charger?

No, this is a bare unit and does not include a battery or charger. These must be purchased separately.

What is the maximum wheel diameter?

The maximum wheel diameter is 125mm.

How do I change the grinding wheel?

Use the lock nut wrench to loosen the lock nut and remove the old wheel. Place the new wheel on the spindle, and secure it with the lock nut using the wrench.

What safety features does this grinder have?

The grinder has an electric brake, an anti-restart function, and AFT (Active Feedback Sensing Technology), which shuts down the tool to protect the user if the rotation speed suddenly slows down.

How do I adjust the speed?

Use the variable speed control dial located on the grinder to adjust the speed from 3,000 to 8,500 rpm.

What is ADT?

ADT stands for Automatic Torque Drive Technology. It adjusts the cutting speed based on the load for optimal performance.

Where can I find replacement parts?

Replacement parts can be found at authorized Makita dealers or online retailers.

Troubleshooting

Grinder doesn't start.

Check if the battery is properly inserted and charged. Ensure the on/off switch is in the on position. Check that the wheel is not jammed.

Grinder runs slowly or loses power under load.

Check the battery charge level. The ADT feature is adjusting speed based on load; this is normal. Ensure the grinding wheel is appropriate for the material.

Grinder vibrates excessively.

Check the grinding wheel for damage or imbalance. Ensure the wheel is correctly installed and the lock nut is tight. If the vibration persists, replace the wheel.
