Adler MAR1244 is an electric angle grinder engineered for handheld grinding, cutting and surface preparation tasks. Designed for use with abrasive discs, cutting wheels and wire brushes, this power tool addresses common metalworking and construction needs such as rust removal, edge shaping, profile cutting and preparing surfaces for welding or painting.
Advantages
The MAR1244 combines a compact design with a motor tuned for typical workshop and site jobs, delivering stable rotational speed under load and compatibility with standard disc sizes. The tool’s ergonomic housing and auxiliary handle permit controlled operation during both grinding and cutting, while its straightforward on/off controls make it accessible for users familiar with angle grinders.
Suitable for
- Grinding and smoothing metal surfaces
- Cutting metal profiles, rods and thin sheet

- Surface preparation before welding, priming or painting
- Light-to-medium construction tasks involving masonry or tile cutting (with appropriate discs)
When it may not be suitable
The Adler MAR1244 is intended for handheld, intermittent use and light-to-medium industrial tasks. It may not be suitable for continuous heavy-duty applications where industrial bench-mounted or high-power grinders are required. For precision finishing tasks requiring extremely low vibration or highly regulated speed control, a specialist finishing tool may be more appropriate.

How to use
Fit the correct disc type and ensure it is rated for the grinder’s maximum speed before powering the tool. Secure the workpiece and use the auxiliary handle for stable two-handed control.
