9999 WATEROUS SPLIT-SHAFT TRANSMISSION

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION

Waterous Company (Waterous) is recalling certain Split-Shaft Transmission Shift Units manufactured April 9, 2015, to April 20, 2016. These shift units allow the user to select whether the Split-Shaft Transmission sends power to the wheels of an emergency response vehicle or powers an add-on unit such as a water pump used for fighting fires. A component within the shift unit may be damaged and as a result, the operator may not be able to switch the power output.

Risk: If the power output cannot be changed, once the fire truck arrives at the scene, it may not be able to pump water to aid in extinguishing the fire, increasing the risk of injury.
