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.
- Electrical#2022272

Issue: On a small number of digger derricks, during a stability test, the connectors to a relay may have been reattached incorrectly. As a result, the hydraulic overload protection system may not work properly. If this happens, the unit could be overloaded. Safety Risk: An overloaded digger derrick could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and provide you with instructions for how to inspect, and if necessary, properly reattach the relay connectors.
- Label#2019284

A unit that is not properly levelled could be unstable. Safety Risk: An unstable derrick unit could create a risk of injury. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to remove the incorrect slope indicator placard.
