Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that during regular inspection of warehouse equipment, it was identified that the oscillating saw attachment was working normally until the first test cut, but by the time the second cut is made, the attachment stopped working.The trigger was engaged, it was turning but had no power, and it sounded as if there's something loose inside the motor that's preventing any quick-release coupling or saw attachment from turning.No consequences or impact to the patient.Due diligence is in progress for this complaint; to date no additional information or product has been received.
