User questions & answers

Question:	Can it cut steel
Answer:	Just say yes you can have mid sized pottery, the lights work really great with all of the flaps closed but if you need the front flap open you might want a small light in the front pointing at the product that you want to shoot. Other than that the light works great and if you have some shadows try changing the light from bright to dim and it should help a lot.
Question:	The manual says to only use type 27 discs? Is that legit? Can anyone recommend a good 4.5 or 5 inch type 27 cut-off wheel
Answer:	It’s really hard to do with any of these type of boxes but I’ve noticed that I like to leave the front door open and put my own light To help with the shadow
Question:	Can you put a diamond blade on it to grind concrete
Answer:	Yeah it’s pretty easy to carry around The size of the light box is 40cm×30cm. So it’s not to big or not to small. It is pretty convenient to carry around like a briefcase. Yes, it can be carried on the plane. I just recommend putting it in one of your bags it shouldn’t take much space since it’s flat. I actually took it for a few hours drive twice to clients stores to take pictures of their products. It was pretty easy and fast to set up easy to tear down.
Question:	Why is this described as a 5” angle grinder? Is it different from a 4 1/2” angle grinder
Answer:	Yes you definitely can fit wine glasses however sometimes using these type of boxes with glass is a little difficult since it is very reflective and you will always get some sort of a glare but it does work

Product description

As power tools have become more advanced, angle grinders also have improved. While users are cheering these technological advancements, safety professionals are becoming much more concerned. Having twice as much power in the same-size tool has especially increased the industry wide demand for non-locking paddle switch grinders. With user safety in mind, the new SKIL 9296-01 non-locking paddle switch grinder automatically turns off when released or dropped. Unlike traditional grinders where there is a locking slide power switch on the top or side of the tool, the non-locking paddle power switch on the SKIL 9296-01 can be found on the bottom of the tool, right where you hold onto it. This way, the tool is powered when you are ready to use it and automatically turns off when released. Additional features included on the SKIL 9296-01 grinder are a 3-position vibration reducing handle that allows you to safely and comfortably hold onto the tool without excessive vibration, an 8-foot rubber cord that is not only more durable, but provides better maneuverability, on-tool wrench storage keeps the blade wrench conveniently tucked into the handle so it won’t get lost, and the tool-less guard adjustment lets you quickly and easily replace your grinder wheel. All these features and more are built into the powerful SKIL 9296-01 7.5-amp grinder that also happens to weigh less than 5-pounds. Its light weight, coupled with the vibration reducing handle, reduces user fatigue while grinding and sanding various materials, cleaning metals, sharpening blades, etc. The SKIL 9296-01 includes one SSKIL 9296-01 paddle switch angle grinder, one metal grinding wheel, one anti-vibe side-assist handle, and one spanner wrench.

• Powerful 7.5 Amp Motor with 11,000 RPM
• Paddle Switch with no Lock-on: Preferred/Mandated switch at many jobsites
• Heavy duty metal gear housing for added ruggedness and durability
• Vibration-reducing handle with wrench storage
• Tool-less guard for quick adjustments

User questions & answers

Question:	Are there any type 1 guards available for this? If so, what is the part number
Answer:	Sorry I don’t know what a type one guard is I do know the existing guard is not interchangeable with all other models and other brands. Before I would purchase for a different guard I would be sure and get with the manufacturer so you get the right one.
Question:	Bought a disc type 27 but the arbor isn't thick enough, the disc is loose & spins in place. Does it have to be Skil brand in order to work
Answer:	No, it doesn't have to be a Skil brand disc to fit, you just got an unusually thin disk. All you have to do is put a washer or two on the shaft, one on each side if you need to use two. Just size the washer to the machine's arbor, 5/8", if that's what you have, or 7/8", depending on your grinder.
Question:	Why can't diamond blades be used with this model? Want to cut through stucco wall. I have general purpose Makita diamond blade model
Answer:	Hello Dennis! The 9296-01 is not recommended for cutting, as we do not offer a cutting guard. This tool should be used for grinding only.
Question:	What is the warranty
Answer:	My documentation indicates the warranty is 1 yesr for commercial products and 90 days for consumer products

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the wrench that fits in the handle for storage
Answer:	The arbor (shaft) size on the unit I own is 1/2".
Question:	Is this for a skil grinder
Answer:	no, a high speed dry grinder like this one will destroy the temper on blades. you are looking for a slow speed wet grinder. which should then be followed up with a very fine stone (5000-9000 grit neighborhood), then a leather strop with polishing compound (jeweler's rouge is a little less aggressive than what I prefer for steel, but it will work, albeit slowly.) With practice this method will provide the sharpest possible edge for your chisels. The whetstone part will be faster if you use graduated grits of whetstone from around 3000-9000 in 1500-2000 grit steps.
Question:	got a skil #9310 angle grinder, I need the wrench to change disks, will this work
Answer:	Of course! I used two 5/16" by 2" bolts with a flat washer and lock-washer for each bolt and it fits like the stand was made for the grinder!

User questions & answers

Question:	I'm confused. I see some people saying to use 7/8wheels and some say 5/8.Which one is it
Answer:	No , these are for tools with 6mm or 1/4" chucks. The dremel 8200 has a 3mm or 1/8" chuck.
Question:	Can this be used with a cut off wheel also
Answer:	If u want to sculpt wood you can depending on the tool u use with them. When used with pneumatic tools, which I think is recommended, they are aggressive and may be hard to control.
Question:	Can this item cut through a metal bolt? If so, what blade is recommended? Thanks in advance
Answer:	Only if the tool has a 1/4" shank. The dremel tools I have seen have a 1/8" shank.
Question:	What size shaft ? 5/8" or
Answer:	It's not dishwasher safe, so it includes a cleaning brush, even if it doesn't help much. I prefer the grinder kit I bought from other brands, has a brush with wooden handle for better cleaning. Link : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RWYW74H

Question:	Description says tool stops when preventative maintenance is required. This is a big problem. How does this work
Answer:	Hi,I bought this item and returned it. It was advertized as having a family of accessories which turned out to be not available.
