On a small number of digger derricks with a dual pole rack system, a weld could be missing on the rear pole rack. As a result, the rack could crack and cause the pole and rack to drop in height.
A pole and rack that drop could create a risk of injury.
Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and instruct you to contact Altec Service to inspect the rear pole rack mounting plate, and repair any missing welds at no charge.
The slope indicator placard on certain digger derricks may have incorrect information. This could make a user think that it is not necessary to level the unit while working on a slope. A unit that is not properly levelled could be unstable.
An unstable derrick unit could create a risk of injury.
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to remove the incorrect slope indicator placard.
Certain corner mounted Digger Derricks may have a loose or improperly tightened rotation bearing fasteners. This could lead to structure failure which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Altec will provide instructions on how to inspect and tighten the fasteners.
A failure of this component (other) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
