The chain disc may be mounted on an angle grinder and may therefore, against its intended use, be used as a hand-held circular saw. The disc takes too long to stop. As a consequence, this could cause kickback, the user may lose control over the tool or get hurt while the disc stops. The product does not comply with the relevant European standards EN 62841 and EN 60745.
