Hazard

The SFD/IDD safety mechanism may not engage properly at the lower range of SFD/IDD travel. This mechanism is installed to hold and prevent the SFD/IDD from falling due to a counterweight cable failure. The lower range of travel is 1.1 in (28mm) from the lowest point of normal SFD/IDD vertical compression. A fall of the SFD/IDD could result in an injury to a patient or operator.
