Issue

On certain fire trucks, the locking tabs on the positional waterway trolley can break if the proximity switches are not properly adjusted. As a result, the trolley can move when the water pressure is turned on. If this happens, the trolley can disconnect from the ladder and drop to the ground.

Safety risk

A positional waterway trolley that disconnects from the ladder and drops to the ground could create a risk of injury.

Corrective actions

Smeal will notify owners by mail and instruct you to contact your local dealer to arrange for an adjustment of the proximity switches on the positional waterway trolley.
