Hazard

The product poses the risk of electric shock because the windings of the rotor may break down rapidly when in use. The fixing of the back part may easily break and the back part could thus come loose. When the back part is not in place, it is possible to come into contact with live parts. The product does not comply with the Machinery Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60745.
