Totals add up the figures the notices state, counting a reannounced recall once. A notice that gives no number adds nothing.
One notice where the recalled product is a drill.

A wiring problem presents the possibility of an electric shock or electrocution in these drills.
One notice where the recalled product is a circular saw.

The trigger switch on the circular saw can be locked on or the switch can be turned on without the use of the safety lock-out. This can cause unexpected operation of the saw, posing a risk of laceration.
One notice where the recalled product is a table saw.

The blade drive mechanism may loosen or the motor can separate from the tool. Loosening of the blade drive mechanism can result in kickback of the item being sawed, resulting in possible laceration. Motor unit separation can cause the coasting saw blade to damage the saw wiring resulting in possible electric shock, or the separated motor could strike the user and cause injury.
The recall contact each official notice gives, newest first. Contacts can change after a notice is published; the notice itself is the final word.
