The hazard

The chainsaw attachment may be mounted on an angle grinder and could therefore, against its intended use, be used as a hand-held circular saw. As a consequence, this could cause kickback or loss of control over the tool, resulting in injuries. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standard EN 60745-2-3.

Product description

Chainsaw attachment as an accessory for angle grinders; 1 500 watts, 12 inch. Product sold online, in particular via eBay.
