13 units affected
Issue: On certain aerial devices and digger derricks, the cable step wire ropes that secure the entry step could fail. As a result, the cable could detach and cause a person to fall. Note: This recall only affects certain aerial devices and digger derricks equipped with cable entry steps. Safety risk: A step that detaches could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: To reduce the safety risk, Altec advises that you should check that the cable entry step(s) are properly secured until the recall repairs have been completed. Altec will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact Altec Service to inspect and, if necessary, replace the entry step(s).

19 units affected
Issue: 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. Safety Risk: Wiring that doesn't have proper circuit protection could create a fire risk. Corrective Actions: 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.
- Other#2022052
1 units affected
Issue: On one AN67-E100 aerial device, the upper and lower boom lift cylinder hoses may be plumbed incorrectly. As a result, the boom may be extended too far and the unit could tip over. Safety Risk: An aerial device that tips over can create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Altec Industries will notify the owner by mail and provide them with instructions for how to inspect for incorrect plumbing. Altec Service will repair the plumbing at the turntable, if required.
- Other#2021659
30 units affected
Issue: On certain aerial devices, the platform leveling sprocket may not have been properly welded and could fail. If this happens, the platform may not stay level and could tip suddenly. Safety Risk: If the platform tips suddenly, a person could slip from the platform and fall, creating the risk of an injury. Corrective Actions: Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and provide them with instructions for how to inspect the leveling sprocket. If the sprocket assembly is cracked, it will need to be replaced. If it is not damaged, a secondary retention kit will be installed to limit rotation of the platform if the sprocket weld fails.
- Structure#2021022
59 units affected
Issue: On certain aerial devices and digger derricks, a snap ring in the hydraulic check valve assembly could fail. If this happens, the snap ring can get stuck in the hydraulic system. This could result in continued (uncontrolled) movement of the boom. Note: This recall only involves units equipped with a DC pump. Safety Risk: A boom that drifts or continues to move on its own could create a risk of injury to the operator and nearby people. Corrective Actions: Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to inspect the check valve assembly. If the check valve assembly needs to be replaced, Altec will supply a replacement part or set up a service appointment with an Altec Service Center or Mobile Service Technician.
- Other#2015112
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.
- Other#2010406
27 units affected
Certain aerial devices and digger derricks, installed on utility service vehicles (to elevate personnel in order to facilitate working on overhead service lines, for tree trimming, etc.) were manufactured using high strength fasteners that may fail due to stress corrosion cracking. Failure of the fasteners could result in uncontrolled movement or separation of the pedestal from the turntable, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected fasteners.
