Upon visual inspection by the local pelton and crane distributor, it was determined that the locking key and locking key screw were not installed on the helios 3000 dental light arm. The function of the locking key and locking key screw is to secure the light arm assembly together. The device was not returned to pelton and crane but rather it was serviced and placed back in use at the doctor's office and has been tested and is now functioning to manufacturer's specifications. A review of pelton and crane's helios 3000 dental light installation manual clearly documents and illustrates how to properly install the locking key and locking key screw during installation of the dental light. Pelton and crane reviewed the installation issue with the distributor.
