Manufacturer Narrative

Block h6: problem code 1069 captures the reportable issue of handle broken.Block h10: investigation results received one speedband superview super 7 for analysis; however, the device returned without the ligator head.A visual examination of the trip wire noted it was partially rolled in the handle assembly, indicating that initially the handle knob could be rotated.There were marks/scratches observed on the handle assembly and shank assembly, indicating that the trip wire was not properly secured in the handle assembly slot.There was evidence that the trip wire was placed around the shank assembly where it was found broken.A labeling review was performed and from the information available, this device was not used per the directions for use (dfu)/product label that trip wire was not properly secured in the handle slot indicated in the step 8.Based on the condition and evaluation of the returned device, the most probable root cause is failure to follow instructions since the problem was traced to the user not following the manufacturer instructions.A review of the device history record (dhr) was performed and confirmed that this device met all material, assembly and performance specifications.Additional information: b5, h10 block h11: correction: d4 (expiration date).
