Great service from Start to finish would definitely recommend and use again

Why hire the 9″ Grinder from Breckland Plant Hire
For most tradespeople and self-builders this size of grinder is an occasional-use tool rather than a daily essential. Hiring gives you a well-maintained, high-powered machine without the upfront cost, maintenance, storage or annual PAT considerations. It also means you get the right disc for the job without having to keep multiple expensive consumables on site. Our kit is serviced regularly and available for immediate hire — view the 9″ Grinder listing for full availability.
Operator and safety notes
Always fit the correct guard and the right disc for the task. Use two hands, wear eye protection, hearing protection, gloves and a suitable respirator when cutting masonry (silica dust hazard). Do not use cutting discs for heavy grinding and avoid side-loading abrasive discs. Keep a secure footing and be aware of kickback — never force the tool. For prolonged cutting consider water suppression or dust extraction to reduce airborne dust.
