Metabo Handle Upgrade

Hi everyone,

I purchased my metabo used from a member here on the forum. it came broken in the box.

my local metabo dealer is fastenal canada so I paid them a visit. turns out that the handles for angle grinders fit the PE12-175 aswell. the new version of angle grinder handles are much nicer than the polishing handles., they come filled with a urethane to help absorb shock and vibration, and they have a little bit of grip to them.

some with dinged up handles may want to try this out, or even if you're looking for something to spend $10 on!

have a look at your local metabo dealer. it's a standard part for all angle grinders, part number easily available.

here's a a quick picture:

 

Thanks for the tip!
