Grinding wheel sold separately [thats whay its $5 cheaper ] [FONT=arial, sans-serif]120V, 60 Hz, 4.2 amps; [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, sans-serif]5/8"-11 spindle with 7/8" adapter << is that standard , I mean I wont have problems finding wheels? ; [/FONT]

The 5/8"-11 is the threaded stud, works with the wire cup brush (my fave for cleaning rust, scale, paint), and the 7/8" shank is for grinding wheels and flap discs. So, yeah, standard for 4.5" stuff. 4" wheels may go on a 5/8" shank, but it should fit those too.

And you keep whining about weight -- you wanting a light grinder or something?
