Altec Industries is recalling approximately 3,824 L Series and LR Series aerial devices manufactured between 1999 and 2022. These vehicles may have a hydraulic hose installed where metallic tubing was required, which can lead to hose damage and the failure of the load-holding feature. Altec will inspect affected units and replace improper hoses with specified metallic tubing free of charge.
If the load-holding feature fails, the platform or load can move unexpectedly. This unintended movement poses a serious risk of injury to operators or bystanders near the equipment.
