Unknown · Chain disc

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. As a consequence, this could cause kickback or loss of control over the tool. The product does not comply with the relevant European standards EN 62841 and EN 60745.
