Reason
Philips has become aware that the two bolts that attach the clamping plate to the lateral shaft may break. This may cause the c-arm to float freely. Depending on the orientation of the free-floating C-arm and any other forces applied to it the C-arm could move laterally forward, slide out of its bearings and then possibly sag.
