Massive power tool recall: 1.4 million tools recalled, 9 people already injured
It's time to recheck your power tools following a big recall earlier this year. Two new recall actions are in place concerning devices that might cut you while you're using them. One of them is DeWALT's 12-inch Sliding Compound Miter Saws which sold more than 1.4 million units across the US and Canada. The other involves Makita's cordless hedge trimmers, which sold only about 2,600 units in the US.
Both devices have the same problem. A part that should protect the user might lead to laceration injuries. DeWALT already received 571 malfunction reports, including 9 injuries.
