Awhile back I posted a simple welding project called "A gift for your angle grinder".
Heres installment 2 in "grinder love".
I've had this DeWalt 18v grinder for 4 years now and listening to it sounded like the bevel gears might be getting dry so I took the cover off to grease it. There was lots of nice clean grease but it's all flung off the gears. So I scooped it up and covered the gears again and put the cover back on. Now it's quiet, sounds like a new grinder.
My Milwaukies are all 10+ years old, make a lot of noise and I've never checked their grease, will do those next.
