Functional features for quick, easy and precise leveling

GWS 750 has functional features for quick, easy and precise results. For example, the newly designed motor platform enables higher rate of removal, greater efficiency, lower temperature and improved cooling performance. Additionally, the tool comes with an easy to grip handle for smooth working and a robust metal flange for tougher working conditions.

 

Moreover, vibration and noise is reduced significantly thanks to a machining/spiral bevel gear set. This compact gear housing that features a flat gear head allows the user convenience even in tight spaces.

 

Bosch original carbon brushes are engineered specifically for each tool application to deliver safe, reliable operation. The wrong brush, of inferior composition or design, can cause severe sparking that may damage other components and lead to premature failure. The compatible carbon brush used in this tool enables easy, routine maintenance and minimal downtime. The spindle lock design permits quick and easy installation and removal of accessories.


GWS 750 is highly effective, delivering great power and torque. The ergonomic design enhances the comfort during extended grinding applications and makes for easy handling, control and an extended lifetime, even under heavy duty.
