The problem
Altec is recalling certain at40m/p aerial devices manufactured from june 2007 through october 2009. These units have fiberglass arm links that, over time, may develop reduced electrical isolation performance. As such, the links may begin to conduct current.
The risk
If the arm link conducts current, should the arm link contact an electrical wire, the operator may be shocked or electrocuted and death or serious injury may result.
The fix
Altec will replace the link free of charge. The safety recall began on may 23, 2011. Owners may contact altec at 1-877-462-5832.
