Risk
The safety guard does not provide adequate protection. If the user loses control of the machine, they may receive cuts or other injuries from the blade. Additionally, the product is not marked with sufficient warnings and some of the required documentation/markings are missing. Moreover, the charger supplied has insufficient creepage and clearance distances and is insufficiently isolated. Furthermore, the plug does not meet the dimensional requirements. This can lead to the user receiving an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive.
