Product Statement
40V Max Brushless 230mm (9’’) Angle Grinder
The 40V Max XGT Brushless 230mm (9”) Angle Grinder (GA038G) delivers corded grinding performance without the cord for the most demanding applications. It’s powered by a Makita-built brushless motor which delivers the power and performance needed for heavy- load applications. The GA038G is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit, and more.
Additional features include an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less and Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT) that turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is forced to a stop.
The GA038G is also equipped with Makita’s Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), designed to improve a tool’s operation and durability in harsh conditions and Auto-Start Wireless System (AWS) for wireless power-on and power-off communication between the equipped tool and compatible dust extractor.

- Electric brake
rapidly stops the grinding or cutting wheel in 2 seconds or less after the switch has been disengaged. - Anti restart / Soft start
if battery is inserted whilst the switch is engaged the tool will not start. Switch must be released and engaged again to engage the motor. Slower initial start up speed before reaching full speed, to reduce start up shock, ensuring user safety. - Active Feedback
Sensors (AFT) if the tool detects a sudden slow down in the wheel rotation, which usually occurs when the wheel binds causing kickback the tool automatically shuts down, reducing kickback the tool to protect the user. - Lightweight design
Lighter in weight than the LXT series, as using one XGT battery, instead of two LXT batteries. Creating a more ergonomic and comfortable design. - Auto start Wireless System (AWS) when paired with a compatible Bluetooth vacuum or receiver the trigger switch on the grinder can wirelessly activate the dust extraction system. Extraction will operate while the tool is in use and deactivate 5 seconds after the trigger is released.
- eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT)
enhances protection against dust and moisture protecting key electrical components for use in harsh jobsite conditions. - Vibration suppression joint
rubber joint separates the motor housing from the grip / handle portion of the tool reducing the vibration transferred to the user during use for more comfortable operation.
