Issue
On certain truck-mounted telescopic cranes equipped with a 24/40, 26/44, 31/55 extendable crane jib, the locking pin and placement area may not be properly highlighted to the operator. Due to the lack of visibility of the locking pin and indication of placement, the operator could forget to use the pin or inadvertently insert the pin in the wrong location, increasing the risk of unimpeded movement of the extendable jib section within the base jib section. This could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Manufacturer will provide a high visibility pinning kit ensuring the proper placement of the pin.
