Reason for the recall
- The product poses a risk of injuries as the CNC lathes do not have interlocked access panels/doors and bar feed opening is not guarded. This means that access to the inside of the lathe whilst the parts are moving is possible and contact with these moving parts of machinery could result in injury.
