  • Reason
    Gf health products, inc., in conjunction with okin america, has initiated a voluntary field correction affecting the okin america "duomat 3" head/foot motor used in the manufacture of our lumex patriot full electric bed model us0458/us0468 and patriot lx full electric bed model us6000. the failure mode is directly related to contaminated material in the plastic housing used to produce the duomat 3 motor. contaminated motor housings may crack resulting in a motor that will no longer actuate the head section per the intended design. if the head section were to fall it is unlikely but possible an injury could occur. no injuries have been reported.
