Features
DWE46202
E-switch Protection™
The ON/OFF switch has a no-volt release function. In the
event of a power outage or other unexpected shut down,
the switch will need to be cycled (turned off and then on)
to restart tool.
E-Clutch™
This unit is equipped with an E-Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch),
which in the event of a high-load or wheel pinch, the unit
will be shut off to reduce the reaction torque to the user.
The switch needs to be cycled (turned off and then on) to
restart tool.
Brake
When the switch is released the motor immediately turns
off and electronically brakes stopping the accessory quickly.
Kickback Brake™
When a severe pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed the
electronic brake engages with maximum force to quickly
stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, and
shut the grinder off. The switch needs to be cycled (turned
off and then on) to restart tool.
Constant Clutch™
When overloaded or stalled the motor torque is reduced. If
load is reduced the torque and RPM will increase. If the tool
is stalled for an extended amount of time it will shut-off and
require the switch to cycle to restart.

WARNING: Regardless of the speed setting, the rated
speed of the accessory must be at least equal to the
