Issue
On certain aerial devices, the hydraulic feeder tube could become damaged by contact with the cylinder rest bracket. As a result, the feeder tube could leak oil. If this happens, there could be an uncontrolled movement of the boom.
Safety risk
Uncontrolled boom movement could increase the risk of injury to the operator and nearby people.
Corrective actions
Altec Industries will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact Altec Service to inspect and, if necessary, replace the cylinder rest pad and feeder tube. To reduce the safety risk, Altec advises to periodically inspect the feeder tube for signs of damage until the recall repairs are completed.
