Technical Service Bulletin SB-18-302 — 2018 HEIL REAR LOADER GARBAGE TRUCK

Also see SB-18-300 for the original notification of this issue. SB-18-302 adds certain Rear End Loaders to the Products Affected section below and adds repair instructions for both the Front End Loader/Automated Side Loader 4-Hole Pin Mount Kit (372-8847) and the Rear End Loader 3-Hole Pin Mount Kit (372-8848). The only difference between the kits is the Spacer Plate hole configuration. Heil has identified the potential for a weld defect on certain Heil Front End Loaders, Automated Side Loaders and Rear End Loaders manufactured from June 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018. The potential defect relates to improper welding of the Rear Mounting Pin Weldments, Heil P/N 211-5256. For Service Hoist or Service Lift equipped Front End Loaders, these two pins (one on each side of the frame rail) hinge the body structure during Service Hoist or Service Lift raising and lowering operations. Utilizing the Service Hoist or Service Lift may cause the raised body to become unstable.
