Hazard: Electric shock and injuries

Power 12 Inch Mini Battery Electric Chainsaw poses electric shock and injury risks

Country	United Kingdom
Category	Consumer goods
Published	2025-06-19
Model identifiers	Charger model number: TZ-C03AE
Category	Machinery
Hazard	Electric shock and injuries
Hazard description	The product presents a serious risk of electric shock due to poor quality internal soldering and inadequate creepage and clearance distances within the charger. The plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 because the distance from the live pin to the outside edge is too small. The product also presents an injury risk as there is no manually activated chain brake. If the product was to ‘kick back’ during use, the user may lose control of the chainsaw, leading to injuries.
Non-compliance	Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008; Plugs & Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994
Remedy	The import has been rejected at the border and destroyed.
Recall number	2502-0117
