Altec Industries is recalling 18 of its 2019-2022 AT335 vehicles because an electrical outlet at the aerial boom tip may have been installed without a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). This safety device is designed to shut off power instantly if an electrical fault occurs. Without this protection, users of the boom tip outlet face a significantly higher risk of serious injury or fire if the electrical circuit malfunctions. Altec is offering a free inspection and will install a GFCI outlet on all affected units.
If an electrical ground-fault occurs at the boom tip outlet, the lack of GFCI protection means the power will not automatically shut off. This creates an immediate danger of electrical shock, severe injury, or the start of a fire.
