The circular saw blade can be mounted on an angle grinder and the device could therefore, contrary to its intended use, be used as a hand-held circular saw. 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 standards EN 60745-2-3 and EN 62841-2-3.
