The flexible grease gun hose can develop a hole allowing grease to be ejected while using the grease gun, posing a laceration hazard.
The recalled electric motor's safety cutoff may pose a risk of short circuit and fire hazard while in use.
A combi (or combination) boiler is a type of gas boiler that provides both a home's hot water and central heating. The hot water can exceed the temperature set on the control panel, posing a burn hazard to users.
The ladders' locking mechanism can jam and not fully lock into place, posing a fall hazard.
The safety bar can detach or break while in use, posing serious fall and injury hazards to consumers.
The dual action engagement system on the nailers can malfunction and involuntarily discharge a nail by pulling the trigger alone, posing a laceration hazard to consumers. The nailer should require both the work piece contact element (nose-piece) to be depressed and the trigger to be pulled at the same time in order to discharge a nail.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
