FDA Recall Notice

Source: U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — official FDA notice for recall FDA-Z-0303-2017.

During the period of April 2009  May 2011, Handicare AB used a wing handle in which the screw and handle, after repeated tightening, may slide apart. This causes a small amount of play in the attachment of the ladder, which in turn results in high load at the attachment holes of the ladder. Eventually, this may cause mechanical fatigue in the material of the ladder.
