Creedmoor Operations Creedmoor, NC Customer Service Notice July 9, 2021 Units Affected: TDA58 aerial devices built from September 2014 to May 2021 (Verify that your unit serial number is affected by reviewing the attached list in this CSN or by accessing your fleet on connect.altec. com/login) Unit and Trailer Tie Down Updates Altec is committed to providing our customers with safe and reliable products from initial delivery throughout the useful life of the unit. Some customers have reported damage to and failure of the tie down components used on their unit and trailer. A failed tie down point on the unit or trailer can cause the unit to become unstable in transit with the potential to move from the trailer. Death or serious injury can result from an unsecured unit. Altec has developed an improved tie down system for the affected units and trailers. Updated information describing changes in the use of the tie downs is included with the system for insertion in the Operator’s and Maintenance Manuals. The changes include reversing the orientation of the unit on the trailer so the platform is located facing the trailer tongue. Note that this new unit orientation will prevent the use of an LR7 or LR8 Front Mount unit from towing the unit and trailer because the LR boom elbow will interfere with the TDA58 platform. An alternative vehicle with the required towing capacity must be used, such as an LR7 or LR8 Rear Mount or other vehicle that has no structure(s) that will interfere with the platform. The unit tie down chains or straps must be inspected on all affected units and trailers no later than the next periodic maintenance interval or 30 days from the receipt of this CSN, whichever comes first. Use the Inspection Procedure beginning on page 2. Perform the inspection in a location where the unit and trailer can remain parked until new chains are received if the inspection determines that the unit and trailer must be taken out of service. If the inspection criteria are not met, the unit must not be transported on the trailer until the new chains kit portion of the tie down system is obtained and utilized. Whether or not the inspection criteria are met, the entire improved tie down system including new tie down chains and unit and trailer modifications must be installed within 90 days of the receipt of this CSN.
