Terex Digger Derrick

The defect

Terex South Dakota, Inc. (Terex) is recalling certain model year 1999-2012 XL4000 Digger Derrick utility trucks. The shims and spacers used to adjust the length of the hydraulic cylinder may give, causing the rod eye and threads to fatigue while lifting loads.

The risk

The hydraulic cylinder may separate from the digger derick arm, allowing it to collapse without warning, increasing the risk of injury to the operator or those nearby.

The remedy

Terex will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the rod eye and threads, as necessary. The existing shims and spacer will be replaced with a hardened spacer. All repairs will be made at no charge to the owner. The recall began on May 23, 2013. Owners may contact Terex at 1-605-882-4000.
