GE HealthCare has become aware that in certain Optima XR200/220/240amx systems that have had a column replacement performed, some bolts used in the Column Safety mechanism can be missing. If these bolts are missing and a failure of the internal counterpoise cable occurs, the Column Safety mechanism will not work properly causing the arm with X-ray tube and collimator to drop downward on the column track.
