Issue

On certain truck-mounted digger derricks, the bolts which secure the winch motor may not have been adequately tightened during assembly. If the bolts loosen, the motor could detach, allowing a load carried by the winch to fall, placing anyone near or beneath at risk of personal injury. Correction: Altec will direct vehicle owners to inspect and tighten the winch motor mounting bolts.
