What is the danger
The products pose a risk of injuries for unskilled users. Top-handled chainsaws are designed so that they can be used single-handed, when essential, by skilled users, and their unrestricted sale to untrained non-specialised persons is not permissible. In addition, the chain brakes have insufficient braking effect and the handles can break.
