Viking M, L, and XL Mobile Lifts. Non-AC-powered patient lift.

Reason: Complaints (including one reported death) allegedly of the lift arm drifting down suddenly. If the lift arm assembly is manually lifted, the actuator can become damaged and get stuck in the highest position. If a patient is lifted into the sling while the actuator is stuck, there is a potential risk of a free fall of the patient, resulting in minor or potentially catastrophic injuries.
