The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    Made Jul 19, 2021, sent to the company Jul 22, 2021, published by CPSC Aug 5, 2021

    The product, in the report: Ridgid R2401 trim router Model R2401

    While using a Ridgid R2401 trim router to trim a wood countertop the router jumped off of the piece being routed and out of my right hand and across my left hand. It gouged a 3” long by 1/2” wide and 2” long by 1/2” wide cut in the back of my left hand. It continued traveling across the table and onto the ground still running. There is no safety cutoff switch on this tool! I was transported to the emergency room to get stitches and bandages. The accident occurred on Monday July 12, 2021.
