STRUCTURE:BODY

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2016-2022 DM, DH, DC, DL, D2000, D3000, and D4000 series digger derricks, and AM55 aerial devices. The base of the rear pole rack may be missing a weld.

Risk: A missing weld on the rear pole rack can lead to a crack that could cause the pole and rack to drop in height, increasing the risk of an injury.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2019-2022 AT335 vehicles. An inverter-powered outlet may have been installed at the aerial boom tip without ground-fault interrupter (GFCI) protection.

Risk: An outlet without GFCI protection may fail to shut off electrical power when a ground-fault occurs, increasing the risk of injury or fire.

EQUIPMENT:EMERGENCY:SIREN/LIGHTING/STROBES

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Aerial Devices, Digger Derricks, Service Bodies and Cranes. Water can leak into the strobe lights, which could cause an electrical short-circuit.
