Why it was recalled

A broken fuse inside the laser that was caused by a short circuit at PIN 4 of the DOOR CTRL. This short circuit was caused by a badly positioned cable that made contact with the housing/frame and caused a short circuit and destroyed the fuse in the laser. This caused the shutter to remain in its most recent state; either in an open or closed position. Once the fuse was destroyed the shutter could not be operated.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
