Issue: The slope indicator placard on certain digger derricks may have incorrect information. This could make a user think that it is not necessary to level the unit while working on a slope. 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.
