Hazard

The circular saw blade may be mounted on an angle grinder and could therefore, against its intended use, be used as a hand-held circular saw. As a consequence, this could cause kickback or loss of control over the tool, resulting in injuries. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standard EN 60745-2-3.

Measures taken
