| Reason | An on-site evaluation of the equipment parts that attach the Beta Assembly (x-ray tube and collimator) to the Over Head Tube Crane (OTC) Telescope was completed by Carestream Health (CSH) Service Engineering. Inspection of these parts revealed that the tab on the lock washer was not bent into the lock nut recess and because the Beta Assembly detached from the OTC telescope, the lock nut was not sufficiently tightened. |
