Recall 22V-794: 2019–2022 Altec Aerial Device

The problem

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2019-2022 AT41ME aerial devices. The material handling interlocking valve may lose power when the outriggers are not set, allowing the jib winch to be operated while the outriggers are up.

The risk

Outriggers that are not set when loads are being lifted by the jib winch may cause the unit to tip, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

Altec will install a visual indication system to show when the outriggers are set or not set, and provide a new pre-operational inspection placard, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 16, 2022. Owners may contact Altec's customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is CSN 3030.
