The problem

Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain 2016-2021 OM, Optima-HRX, and TCX aerial devices with dual platforms. The upper control stations' emergency stop controls may not stop all boom functions, resulting in unintended boom movement.

The risk

Unintended boom movement increases the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will install engine stop/start controls at both control stations, as necessary, and install placards, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 13, 2022. Owners may contact Terex's customer service at 1-605-882-4000. Terex's number for this recall is SN708.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
