Bulletin Summary
Altec discovered that one of the fasteners used to attach the rear shear plate on the subbase of the unit to the chassis can contact the chassis u-bolt. The fastener can be a huck bolt or a bolt and nut. Movement of the u-bolt can possibly cause damage to the huck bolt or bolt and nut resulting in the fastener being broken off. Altec requires the customer to perform an inspection of rear shear plate on the subbase to determine if huck bolts or bolts and nuts were installed. This inspection should be completed no later than 90 days after the receipt of this SIL. Use the inspection Procedure beginning on Page 2. If huck bolts are present, contact Altec to perform the repair, or send the vehicle to local service center.
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.
