That are made in China

About 370,000 Homelite chain saws, made in China and imported by Homelite Consumer Products Inc., are being recalled because the chain brake can fail to stop the chain on its first application, posing a risk of injury.

No injuries have been reported.

The recalled Homelite brand chain saws include the model numbers UT10514, UT10516, UT10517, UT10518, UT10520, UT10540, UT10560 and UT10918.

Affected products have manufacture dates between November 2007 and August 2008. The products were sold at Home Depot stores nationwide between December 2007 and October this year. Info: 800-242-4672; by Web at http://www.homelite.com or http://www.cpsc.gov
