Bulletin Summary
This Service Bulletin addresses a mandatory inspection for cracks on Hydraulic Oil Tank Mounting Brackets on Heil Front End Loader (FEL), Automated Side Loader (ASL), and Rear End Loader (REL) units identified in the Products Affected section below. If one or both angle brackets fail, the hydraulic oil tank could become unstable, potentially coming loose from the frame rail. The corrective action is to inspect for cracks on the two Hydraulic Oil Tank Mounting Brackets. The first inspection should be done immediately upon receipt of this bulletin. Contact your local Heil Dealer immediately if cracks are found on either of the brackets. If cracks are found on inspection, take the vehicle to your local Heil Dealer and the Dealer will replace both brackets at no charge to you. Do not try to repair a cracked bracket.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
