The product, in the report: Diablo snap-lock mandrel 3/8 7/16 & 1/2 inch sold separately and in multiple hole saw kits
Purchased a Diablo Snap-Lock hole saw mandrel from the Home Depot. I attached a hole saw to the mandrel by screwing it on to the mandrel which has clockwise threads. I attached the mandrel to a cordless drill and began drilling a hole in a ceiling for a recessed can light. I drilled the hole successfully but when I released the drill trigger the drill stopped immediately, however the hole saw unthreaded itself from the mandrel and flung off. This occurred from the top of an eight foot ladder. Someone could have been seriously injured. I reported the incident to the Home Depot and exchanged the mandrel for one that has two safety locking pins that prevent the saw from spinning when the drill stops.
