Description

Risk
The product poses a risk of electric shock because: - the basic insulated wires may come into contact with moving, accessible metal parts, and could therefore be damaged, - insulation of the wires is not sufficient, thus flashover can occur between the live parts and accessible metal parts. The product does not comply with the Machinery Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60745.
