What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Power-source details are contradictory: the listing says “Kraftstoffbetrieben” while also stating 230 Volts and 400 watts. The blade description is also inconsistent, pairing “Aluminium Oxide” with a rectangular blade and a tooth count. Confirm the intended configuration and blade details in the selected listing.
