On certain aerial devices with an aluminum work platform, the mounting holes on the aluminum platform could crack or elongate and fail, increasing the risk of injury to the operator or bystanders. Correction: Altec will provide owners with a reinforcement bracket kit and instructions on how to install it. Note: Owners are advised to inspect the platform mounting holes immediately. If any damage or cracks are found, the unit should be taken out of service until the reinforcement bracket kit is installed.
