Reported risk: The written assembly instructions in the owner's manual incorrectly describe the proper placement of a spring washer and are inconsistent with the figure identifying its proper location. An incorrectly installed spring washer could put undue stress on bolts, causing them to loosen and posing a fall hazard to consumers. Health Canada has not received reports of injuries or incidents to Canadians related to the use of these exercise machines.
