Description

Reason

Beginning May 24, 2011 Stryker Neptune 2 (N2) Waste Management Systems castors were replaced with a new castor design because investigation found the old design had the potential for the casters to bind compromising the Rover's ability to roll. This can result in additional strain on the operator, due to multiple exposures resulting in back pain.
