Issue: On certain aerial devices, the hydraulic control system for the boom may not work properly in extremely cold temperatures. As a result, the upper and lower booms could continue to move after the joystick or interlock is released. Safety Risk: A boom that continues to move after the operator releases the controls could increase the risk of injury to the operator and nearby people. Corrective Actions: Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and instruct them to install a jumper hose and check valve between the boom tip tank hydraulic lines. Owners will also be instructed to replace the over-center blocking cartridge. These repairs should be done prior to operating the unit in cold weather conditions.

82 units affected
On certain aerial devices and digger derricks, the upstream 30A breaker to the trailer relay module may react too slowly to prevent the module from overheating, which could cause a short circuit increasing the risk of fire, which could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Altec will instruct owners to replace 30A breaker with a 20A breaker.
- Brakes#2015004
64 units affected
On certain aerial devices installed on utility service vehicles (to elevate personnel in order to facilitate working on overhead service lines, for tree trimming, etc.), unintended boom movement could occur in severe cold temperature operation if hydraulic oil warm-up procedures are not followed. This could allow the aerial device to move unexpectedly, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Preset pressure transducers will be added or updated as necessary. Owners may contact Altec at 1-877-462-5832.
