Recalled products

  1. RIWO Net Mobile System Trolley

Reason

In one single case so far the VESA mounting plate broke at its mounting point while the user was adjusting the inclination (Tilt). Internal investigations have shown that as a results of a manufacturing error the weld of the mounting plate at the mounting point of the rotary joint was faulty. There is therefore a risk of a monitor fastened to the VESA mounting plate failling down when the tilt is adjusted. The VESA mounting plate is part of the device RIWO Net mobile system trolley.
