What is the danger
There is no protection in the form of blunt ends on the cutting blade in the event of a kick-back if a branch becomes jammed. Moreover, the product has no two-hand blade control, as the ON switch of the angle grinder is locked. This can lead users to be cut by uncontrolled movements of the hedge trimmer or if it kicks back during use.
Requirements breached
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive.
