NHTSA Campaign 23V636000

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:WINCH

Issued by Altec Industries, Inc. · Reported Sep 14, 2023 · 53 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Altec Industries, Inc. (Altec) is recalling certain 2004-2023 DL42 and DL45 Digger Derricks. The incorrect hydraulic load holding valve may have been installed, which can cause the winch to lower uncontrollably and the load to fall.

Consequence

An uncontrolled load falling increases the risk of injury to personnel or others nearby.

Remedy

Altec will replace the load holding valve, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 6, 2023. Owners may contact Altec's customer service at 1-877-462-5832. Altec's number for this recall is MAB 3113.
