Powertec recalls 2010 Workbench Leverage Gyms with WB-LS10/WB-LS10B models due to bench detachment risk. Stop using immediately and contact for free repair.
Detachment of the exercise workbench from the gym system causes instability, posing a risk of injury to consumers.
Powertec is recalling 2010 Workbench Leverage Gyms (models WB-LS10 and WB-LS10B) because the exercise bench can detach from the gym system, causing instability and injury risk. This affects consumers who purchased these models after February 2010.
The exercise bench can detach from the gym system during use, creating instability that may lead to falls or injuries. This happens because the lock and load mechanism for the removable bench section is faulty in these specific models.
People who own or use Powertec Workbench Leverage Gyms with model numbers WB-LS10 or WB-LS10B purchased after February 2010 are affected. Those using the gyms for home workouts are most at risk.
Check for the Powertec logo with 'Workbench' series name on the removable bench. Affected models have model numbers WB-LS10 or WB-LS10B and were sold after February 2010.
Immediately stop using the Workbench Leverage Gym to prevent injury risk from bench detachment.
