Reason for Recall

Due to the buildup of grease within the hose and motor, the product may require multiple attempts to start. The grease may also migrate into the attachment end of the motor. There is a negligible possibility that the orange grease may leak from the attachment end of the motor and contaminate the surgical wound resulting in soft tissue inflammation.
