Announce Recall of Detail Sanders WASHINGTON, D.C.-In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Ryobi America Corp. of Anderson, S.C., is recalling about 1.2 million detail sanders for repair or replacement. If the sander is left plugged in and the on/off switch is not fully in the \"off\" position, pressure from the switch's rubber dust boot can force the switch into the \"on\" position. As the sander runs unattended, it can generate heat, which can result in a fire. Ryobi has received three reports of these sanders possibly causing fires. One of these fires resulted in substantial property damage. No injuries were reported as a result of these fires. The recall includes the Ryobi model DS 1000, and Craftsman models 315.11639 and 315.11600 sanders. The model numbers and brandname are located on a data plate on the side of the sander. These blue or black oscillating sanders are hand-held tools weighing 1.6 pounds with a sanding arm that extends forward and down from the front end of the sander. They are about 11 inches long and have a triangular sanding head. Only sanders built between May 1993 and April 1997 are being recalled. These sanders have a serial number or date code located along the bottom edge of the data plate on the side of the tool.

Consumers who own one of these sanders should call Ryobi toll-free at (800) 867-9624 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. EST Monday through Friday and they will receive information on having their sanders repaired or replaced at no charge.

If installed improperly, the garage door openers' safety reversal system may not operate properly, posing a potential entrapment hazard. The Chamberlain Group is aware of a 4-year old boy in Puerto Rico who died from being caught in a swinging door operated by a Sears Craftsman garage door opener when the safety reversing sensor did not operate. This inspection/repair program is limited to Puerto Rico, where swinging or sliding doors are used extensively. The program does not apply to overhead doors. The program is further limited to those swinging or sliding garage door openers that have not been installed by Sears authorized installers and, therefore, may have been installed improperly. When improperly installed, the swinging or sliding garage doors will not reverse when they hit an obstruction such as a car or a child. The garage door openers have model numbers beginning with 139.65XXX and 139.53XXX located on the right side panel of the opener chassis near the force adjustment controls. Sears stores throughout Puerto Rico sold the garage door openers from 1980 through 1993 for about $150 to $220. Sears is sending letters to all customers in Puerto Rico known to have purchased the garage door opener. Consumers who purchased these door openers for swinging or sliding doors, but did not have them installed by a Sears authorized installer should test the garage door opener's safety reversal system according to instructions in the Owner's Manual. Consumers should allow the door to close on the narrow side of a 2-inch by 4-inch piece of wood held in its path. Consumers should not place themselves in the path of the swinging or sliding door! If the door does not reverse within two seconds of touching the piece of wood, disconnect the garage door opener and immediately contact Sears toll-free at 800-473-7247. Sears will arrange for an inspection and, if necessary, rework of the installation free of charge. Chamberlain and Sears remind consumers to follow safety instructions in the Owner's Manual to check the safety reversal system monthly. If you adjust the force or travel limit controls, you must check the safety reversal system again. CPSC knows of approximately 60 children between the ages of 2 and 14 who were trapped and killed under overhead automatic garage doors since March 1982. No matter what type of garage door you own, CPSC reminds consumers to always operate the garage door opener only when the door is in full view and free from any obstruction. Keep the door in sight until it is completely closed. No one should cross the path of the moving door.","URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/1997/CPSC-Chamberlain-Group-Announce-Recall-to-Repair-Garage-Door-Openers-in-Puerto-Rico","Title":"Garage Door Openers Recall by Chamberlain Group","ConsumerContact":null,"LastPublishDate":"1997-05-03T00:00:00","Products":[{"Name":"Sears Craftsman garage door openers","Description":"","Model":"","Type":"Garage Doors/Openers","CategoryID":"1965","NumberOfUnits":""}],"Inconjunctions":[],"Images":[],"Injuries":[],"Manufacturers":[{"Name":"Sears","CompanyID":""},{"Name":"Chamberlain Group","CompanyID":""}],"Retailers":[],"Importers":[],"Distributors":[],"SoldAtLabel":null,"ManufacturerCountries":[],"ProductUPCs":[],"Hazards":[{"Name":"Entrapment","HazardType":"","HazardTypeID":""}],"Remedies":[],"RemedyOptions":[]},{"RecallID":5775,"RecallNumber":"96088","RecallDate":"1996-03-27T00:00:00","Description":"March 27, 1996 Release # 96-088 WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Ryobi America Corporation of Anderson, S.C., is announcing a recall to repair approximately 150,000 10-inch table saws. On some saws, the power switch lock-off mechanism may not work, and as a result, children and others who should not have access to the saw could be injured by the moving blade.Ryobi has not received reports of any injuries associated with this problem. All table saws which may have this problem have large rectangular ON/OFF buttons.In order to turn the saw on, a switch lock-off key (referred to in the owner's manual as a key plate) must be in place around the ON button. In some cases, if the OFF button is not completely depressed, consumers may be able to restart the table saw without the key.

(July 21, 1980) -- A program to repair approximately 55,000 \"Craftsman Motorized Miter Saws\" which may pose a laceration hazard to consumers is being conducted by Sears, Roebuck & Company. Sears is conducting the program voluntarily in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The saws can accommodate several types of blades, including a carbide-tipped blade often used to cut soft metals. Because a carbide-tipped blade is thicker than the original blade provided with the saw, consumers may improperly fasten the carbide blade to the motor shaft, creating the possibility that the saw blade may spin off the saw while in use. CPSC has been informed of three instances in 1980 in which carbide-tipped blades being used on the saws disengaged while still spinning. One incident resulted in severe facial lacerations to the consumer. No injuries were reported in the other two cases. The repair program applies to the model 315.23730 and the 315.23731 \"Craftsman Motorized Miter Saws.\" The model numbers can be found on a plate on the saw motor. The saws have been sold by Sears nationwide from July 1978, through June, 1980, for approximately $200. Consumers immediately should stop using carbide-tipped blades with these saws. To obtain a free repair kit, complete with installation instructions, consumers should contact their local Sears retail store or call toll-free 800-845-4781. Anyone wishing to verify the brand name or the model numbers should contact CPSC's toll-free Hotline at 800-638-2772.","URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/1980/55000-Sears-Miter-Saws-To-Be-Recalled-Because-Of-Blade-Hazard","Title":"Miter Saws Recalled by Sears","ConsumerContact":null,"LastPublishDate":"2014-12-18T00:00:00","Products":[{"Name":"Craftsman Motorized Miter Saws","Description":"","Model":"","Type":"Miter Saws","CategoryID":"2047","NumberOfUnits":""}],"Inconjunctions":[],"Images":[],"Injuries":[],"Manufacturers":[{"Name":"Craftsman","CompanyID":""},{"Name":"Sears","CompanyID":""}],"Retailers":[],"Importers":[],"Distributors":[],"SoldAtLabel":null,"ManufacturerCountries":[],"ProductUPCs":[],"Hazards":[{"Name":"Laceration","HazardType":"","HazardTypeID":""}],"Remedies":[],"RemedyOptions":[]}]
