Hi John:

Perhaps "unauthorized" is not quite the correct choice of word.  

I have no direct knowledge of any rules that prohibit such a repair, but it
would not surprise me at all if there is an OSHA requirement that any
equipment used in the workplace can only be repaired by technicians who have
been formally certified to perform the repairs.  I figured that if any such
requirement exists, someone on this list would probably know about it and
would chastise me for violating the rule (all in good fun, of course).
