Firm Action

The end user notification letters inform them of the problem and state that the dealer will be contacting them soon to arrange a time to visit the end user location and conduct the rework on the collimator, which should take less than 30 minutes. In the mean time the end user was instructed to examine their swivel collimator for looseness. If it is found to be loose, the end user was instructed to take the unit out of service and call the dealer.
