What the authority reported
The product presents a risk of injuries because the spool cover on affected units may break and be ejected at high speed during operation. This poses a risk of physical injury to the user and bystanders. The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery Regulations 2008.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
