Blastrac BG 250 Series Concrete Grinders with round flexible couplers

Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: October 25, 2007

What's the hazard

The flexible coupler on the concrete grinder can break during use, allowing the internal parts, including the tooling plate and grinding disc, to be forcefully ejected from the grinder. This can pose a risk of injury from projectiles to the user and those nearby.

What to do

Renters should stop using the product immediately and return it to the rental company. Blastrac has directly contacted owners of these products. Product owners who have not received notice from Blastrac should contact the firm for a free repair kit.
