On a small number of digger derricks, the gearbox assembly may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the gearbox brake may not hold the boom in place. If this happens, the boom could move freely.
A boom that moves on its own could create a risk of injury.
Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to inspect the serial number of the gearbox. If the serial number is in the affected range, Altec advises you to stop using your digger derrick immediately and contact Altec to inspect and, if necessary, replace the gearbox assembly.
On certain aerial devices and digger derricks, the inverter module may not have proper circuit protection for the AC output. As a result, the wiring could overheat and melt.
Wiring that doesn't have proper circuit protection could create a fire risk.
Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact Altec Service to install a 20 A circuit breaker for the inverter AC output. Altec advises not to use the inverter AC output until the recall repairs are completed.
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.
