Angle Grinder

Protection of the cable is made of the material with inappropriate flexibility and mechanical resistance. This may lead to the damage of power supply cable vain and be the source of insufficient insulation which can cause the risk of electric shock. The content and composition of the user manual (lack of adequate warnings concerning safe use) may lead to the misuse of the grinder and therefore be the cause of external injuries (machinery of that type cannot be used safely without proper user manual). This product does not comply with the Machinery Directive and the relevant European standards EN 50144 and EN 60555.
