AIR
COMPRESSORS
Campbell
Hausfeld is recalling Air Compressors sold at Wal-Mart
stores nationwide from January 2009 to June 2009. The
compressor's thermal overload, which shuts the unit off when
it overheats, can fail. This can lead to overheating,
melting of parts and a risk of fire.
The recall
involves the Campbell Hausfeld model HU200099AV air
compressor with a 20-gallon tank. The recall includes date
codes ranging from January 2009 through June 2009. The model
number and date code can be located on the back of the
tank.
Consumers
should return the compressor to any Wal-Mart for a full
refund.
Consumers can
also contact Campbell Hausfeld at (800) 241-0448 between 8
a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or visit

HEAT
GUNS
Wagner Spray
Tech Corp. is recalling Heat Guns sold nationwide from
November 2004 to April 2009. An electrical component failure
inside the heat guns can cause them to continue to produce
heat after the power switch is turned off. This can melt the
heat gun's plastic exterior, causing a burn if the heat gun
is touched and ignite nearby combustibles, posing fire and
burn hazards.
Recalled
models include the Milwaukee Heat Gun MHT3300, ACE HT3500
Heat Gun, and the Wagner Heat Gun HT3500. The heat gun's
name and model number are located on a black label on the
bottom of the heat gun's barrel. The heat guns are black or
yellow plastic and measure about 10 inches long, 8 inches
high and 3 inches wide.
Consumers should contact
Wagner at (888) 925-6244 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. CT
Monday through Friday for a free replacement product or

Macy's
Merchandising Group Inc. is recalling Threads and Greendog
Hooded Sweatshirts sold at Macy's stores nationwide from
July 2008 to March 2009. The sweatshirts have a drawstring
sewn at the base of the hood which can pose a strangulation
hazard.

maroon, yellow, blue, green, and black, with images on the
