No. The Ecoguard G is designed for use on angle grinders for dry applications. Alpha offers a wet/dry electric variable speed polisher (WDP 320) which has the Ecoguard G attached for wet work.
7" (178 mm). It fits 7" and 9" large angle grinders.
The pre-attached connector fits Makita, Milwaukee and Bosch grinders. Alternate connectors are available for other brands.
Four spacers (2.5 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm, 9 mm) are included to adjust the grinding wheel to the correct height inside the cover.
Place the included stainless-steel hose band over the rubber hose connector, insert the vacuum hose, and tighten the band.
No. The dust bag accessory is compatible only with the Ecoguard C; it cannot be used on the Ecoguard G or G7.
Alpha Spike, Vextra, Vexcel and DEC005 wheels are all designed to work inside the Ecoguard G/G7.
The open area on the half-cover lets the wheel grind close to a wall. When the Ecoguard makes contact with the wall, the wall itself forms the vacuum seal.
The springs allow the operator to tilt the grinder while keeping the brushes flat on the work surface, improving dust capture.
