Details
A blue and red coloured saw blade grinder sharpener.
The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as it features a poor
earth connection and a counterfeit plug face. During testing it was identified
that the earth connection could be undone externally, did not have any star
washers and had been terminated from the motor housing. The plug is not
considered to be a genuine BS 1363 plug due to the lack of required
markings. No declaration of conformity was supplied with the product and the
user instructions were found to be missing important information that ensures
the safe use of the product. Some of the required documentation and
markings were not present.
The product does not meet the requirements of The Supply of Machinery
(Safety) Regulations 2008 nor The Plugs and Sockets (Safety) Regulations
1994.
