      If your Makita Grinder motor won't start and the fuses or circuit breakers blow, it could be due to a short circuit in the inline cord or plug. Inspect the cord plug for damaged insulation and shorted wires. Another possible cause is a short circuit in the motor or loose connections; inspect all connections on the motor for loose or shorted terminals or worn insulation. Also, ensure that you install the correct fuses or circuit breakers.

    What causes burning spots on the workpiece with my Makita GB602 Grinder?

      Brian TerrellSep 15, 2025
      If you notice burning spots or cracks in the workpiece when using your Makita Grinder, it could be due to using an improper type of grinding wheel. Try a wheel which is a softer style or coarser grit. It could also be due to an improper feed rate, so slow down the rate of movement of the workpiece into the wheel. Consider adding an optional coolant system or introducing coolant by hand.

    Why does the wheel on my Makita Grinder dull quickly?
    • X
      xwileySep 14, 2025
      If the wheel dulls quickly and grit falls off your Makita Grinder, it could be due to several reasons. The depth of cut might be too great, so slow down the rate of movement of the workpiece into the wheel. The wheel might be too soft for the material being worked on, so select a harder bond. The wheel diameter may be too small, in which case you should replace the wheel. A bad wheel dress could also be the cause, so dress the wheel. Finally, there may be defective wheel bonding; consult the manufacturer of the grinding wheel.

      If you notice lines on the surface of the workpiece when using your Makita Grinder, it could be due to an impurity on the wheel surface. Dress the grinding wheel to resolve this. Another cause could be the workpiece not being held tightly, so use a holding device to firmly retain the workpiece.
