How badly anyone was hurt

  • No one hurt 1 CPSC: Incident, No Injury

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

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.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Sep 21, 2018, sent to the company Oct 10, 2018, published by CPSC Oct 24, 2018

    The product, in the report: Metabo Hand Grinder. Green. Made in Germany

    While using the Metabo grinder the switch was released to stop the blade but the tool kept running. In reaction to this the operator somewhat lost control and the blade struck a steel member causing the blade that was still under full power to come into close proximity of the operators body in what is being considered a near miss in bodily harm by a hand power tool. No injury occurred.
