Manufacturer Reason for Recall | A customer experienced that during assembly and load testing of the device, the bolt for mounting the lifting bar broke. Upon further investigation of this customer complaint, it became clear that the defect occurs as a result of deformation of the materials involved between the lifting bar and the arm of the device. Such deformation can lead to limited mobility in the joint, which prevents proper functionality of the equipment. |
FDA Determined Cause 2 | Component design/selection |
| Action | On November 17, 2025 customers were notified vis a phone call. Notifying them that they will receive an email with the Field Safety Notice and Response Form. The customers were emailed Field Safety Notice letters on or around November 20, 2025.
Corrective action: To reduce the risk of further incidents, replacement units are offered for all potentially affected products. Continued use is safe as long as the lifting bar can move freely and remains vertical during the lifting cycle with or without load. If this is not the case, or if there is any doubt about the product s functionality, the unit must be taken out of service immediately. The components in the defective units (Mover 205 and Mover 300) will gradually be replaced in the coming months. The affected lifting bars will likewise be replaced. |
