The hazard
The saw may snag or jam when cutting fibrous material (e.g. wood).when used as a hand-held circular saw. The tool can suddenly kick back, as there is no protection against this due to the tool’s scope of use.. Moreover, the power supply may be interrupted during use due to a contact problem caused by vibration or an insufficiently-locked battery. The user could touch the product's moving parts while the interruption ends without warning and the tool suddenly restarts. The user could therefore suffer serious cuts.
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standards EN 62841-2-3 and EN 62841-1
