1. Recall Summary

On June 12, 2025, TTI Outdoor Power Equipment Inc. (TTIOPE), of Anderson, South Carolina, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), announced a recall of RYOBI 40V 24-Inch Cordless Hedge Trimmers. The recall involves approximately 113,000 units in the United States and an additional 15,000 units sold in Canada. The recall was initiated due to a laceration hazard associated with the product’s blade activation mechanism.

2. Affected Products

The recall includes RYOBI 40V 24-Inch Cordless Hedge Trimmers with the following model numbers:
– RY40620VNM
– RY40602VNM
– RY40602BTLVNM

Affected units have serial numbers within the following ranges:
– LT21091D180001 – LT22365D060025
– RG23125N250001 – RG24252D101110

The model and serial numbers are located on the data plate on the bottom of the trimmer. The products were manufactured in Vietnam. The trimmers were sold at Home Depot and Direct Tools Factory Outlet stores nationwide and online at www.homedepot.com and www.directtoolsoutlet.com from March 2021 through January 2025, with a retail price range of $90 to $160.

3. Hazard Information

The hedge trimmer blade can unexpectedly activate after pressing just the safety or trigger control individually, rather than requiring the simultaneous engagement of both controls. This malfunction poses a laceration hazard to the user. The firm has received 27 reports of the blade activating after pressing only one of the controls. Of these reports, 16 involved injuries resulting in minor and some severe lacerations.
