Risk: An aerial device that moves unexpectedly increases the risk of injury to the operator.
2012 ALTEC AH75
168 vehicles affected
EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain model year 2010-2013 AH75, AH85, and AH100 vehicles manufactured from April 1, 2010, through November 20, 2013. Moisture may get into the control module plug and result in inadvertant movement of the boom or platform.
Risk: The unexpected movement increases the risk of injury to the operator or those nearby.
2011 ALTEC AH75
120 vehicles affected
EQUIPMENT
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 AH75, AH85, and AH100 Aerial Devices manufactured October 2009 through December 2012. The affected devices may allow electricity to be conducted through the boom due to water entering into the fiberglass layers. Additionally, the joint connecting the fiberglass insert and the steel boom components may fail.
Risk: A fiberglass lower boom insert that can conduct electricity increases the risk of electrocution to the operator should the boom contact a power line. If the joint between the fiberglass insert and the steel boom component fails, the boom may fall, putting the operator at an increased risk of injury.
2009 ALTEC AH75
220 vehicles affected
EQUIPMENT
Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain model year 2002-2010 AH75, AH85 and AH100 aerial devices equipped with square pedestals. In the affected vehicles, the aerial device may develop cracks between the pedestal and the unit subbase.
Risk: Cracks in the pedestal may cause the aerial device to fail, increasing the risk of personal injury.
2013 ALTEC AH75
263 vehicles affected
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Altec is recalling certain model year 2005-2013 AH75/85/100 aerial devices manufactured April 2005 through April 2013; and equipped with current leakage monitoring systems. The cable for the current leakage monitoring system may be too long and may breach the gap provided by the lower boom fiberglass insert chassis insulating system.
Risk: If the gap is breached, then the boom may conduct electrical current, increasing the risk of electrical shock to the operator.
2007 ALTEC AH75
245 vehicles affected
EQUIPMENT
Altec Industries, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2002-2009 AH75/85/100 and HL125 aerial device vehicles equipped with 16-foot radial outriggers. An improper torque was applied to the outrigger cylinder piston retention system during assembly. As a result, the cylinder could loosen from the rod allowing the outrigger leg to protrude beyond the confines of the chassis when it is in a stowed position.
Risk: If the cylinder loosens from the rod, the outrigger could strike a person or object, increasing the risk of injury or property damage.
2010 ALTEC AH75
22 vehicles affected
