Getinge - MAQUET GmbH, 2020-011, Extension table top

Under certain conditions, we have identified that an issue might prevent the device from performing as intended.
As a consequence by swinging one extension bar outwards from its parking position below the table top or rather underneath the back plate, the extension bar may collide with eccentric lever of the back plate and releases it unintentionally.
The suspect operating table tops 1140.20AN and 1140.20F0 are equipped with extension bars, which can be swung into a parking position under the operating table bar, if not needed. In this position, the extension bar stretches along and underneath the back plate.
The back plate is hold and locked into position by eccentric levers, one on the left and one on the right side of the table top. These two levers shall always be positioned in a way that they do not hinder swinging the extension bars in and out [cf. GA114020EN08 p.11 §V.2 Back plate].
However, it is possible that a swung out extension bar collides with an unfavorable positioned eccentric lever of the back plate causing the eccentric lever to being opened when it is not properly locked and/or worn.
