EQUIPMENT

Issued by Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. · Reported Feb 17, 2016 · 1,598 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Iowa Mold Tooling Co., Inc. (IMT) is recalling certain Series III Cranes, models 6000, 7500, 8600, 9500, 10000, 12000, and 14000, manufactured April 4, 2013, to January 22, 2016. The affected cranes have a valve bank cover that may crack and fall from the crane while the crane is being transported.

Consequence

If the valve bank cover detaches from the crane it could be a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

IMT will notify owners, and dealers will replace the valve cover with a thicker cover, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during March 2016. Owners may contact IMT customer service at 1-800-247-5958. IMT's number for this recall is TB2016001.
