Risk Description
Faulty locking rings may cause therings and the affected mounting bushes to be lost. In the worst-case scenario, it cannot be ruled out that the drive shaft may become detached. In such a case, the loose end of the drive shaft could damage the surrounding installation space. The loss of other components can therefore not be ruled out.
