Hazard

Misrouted wiring in the electrical outlets on the workbench risers, aprons and shelves, and reverse polarity in some workbench power cords pose an electric shock hazard.

What You Should Do

Remedy

Consumers should immediately unplug their workbench power cords and stop using the electrical outlets on the workbenches. Additionally, they should remove the power cord from the workbench. Global is contacting its customers directly and either sending replacement risers, aprons and shelves with properly wired outlets and replacement power cords or sending technicians on-site to repair faulty wiring and replace faulty power cords.
