The radiographers contacted the Radiation Safety Officer who responded to the location along with the licensee's Source Retrieval Supervisor. The supervisor attempted to retract the source and on the second attempt, dose rates indicated that the source was fully shielded, but the device's locking device had not tripped. The supervisor inserted the source shipping plug into the device to secure the source in place. The source crankout device was dismantled and they discovered the connector on the end of the drive cable had separated from the drive cable. The crankout device has been shipped to the manufacturer for inspection and repair. The crankout device was placed in service by the licensee on April 11, 2013.
