Description
Circular saw blade, offered and labelled for use on an angle grinder (3 blades / teeth), 125 mm * 22.2 mm. The product was also sold online.
Risk
The circular saw blade is advertised as a saw blade for angle grinders. If the saw blade is mounted on an angle grinder, the angle grinder becomes a hand-held circular saw, which is not its intended use. Such use can result in backlashes and loss of control over the tool. This can result in injuries. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standard 62841-2-3.
