GA7031Y vs GA9031Y (aside from the 9” guard). It is essentially a 7-9” tool. Same driver / arbor, different wheel guards. If you purchase the 9” guard, you now have 2 more inches. NEVER operate this tool without the guard. NEVER. The tool manuals supplied are the same documents. See the Makita website for part numbers. **Q: Is this variable speed?** A: No this is not variable speed. **Q: Where is the ac/dc switch for use with alternative power source located on this tool?** A: This angle grinder from Makita GA7031Y is AC/DC as denoted by the Alternating or Direct Current Symbol on its label. The switch is automatic, you don't have an actual "switch" to slide, flip or press. Simply plug it in and it should work fine. I run mine on my welding machine (AC) and my older machine (DC). No issues so far. As for the location, the AC/DC switch is the switch that turns the grinder on and off. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by T***N on August 19, 2017* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***N on March 19, 2023* ### ⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***N on March 12, 2026* --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/13041901-makita-ga7031y-7-angle-grinder-with-ac-dc-switch](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/13041901-makita-ga7031y-7-angle-grinder-with-ac-dc-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
