- 10219554McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing offers these instructions for changing the Record DVR settings on STONKAM DVR system installed on some McNeilus Rear Discharge Mixers.
- 10169447Internal Document work instructions. McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc. has been alerted by our supplier that a concern affecting safety exists in some Emcara Pressure Relief Device (PRD) valves on CNG tanks (for your information,Emcara?s NHTSA Recall number is 15E059). Some McNeilus Refuse models were shipped with an Emcara CNG PRD which may not vent properly. The purpose of the thermal PRD is to relieve pressure in the CNG system if the CNG tank is reaching an unsafe level of pressure, as might occur with a thermal event that heats up a tank. In the event of a thermal event, the thermal PRD may not vent properly, which increases the likelihood of a CNG tank over-pressurizing and rupturing. A tank rupture creates an increased risk of injury to the truck occupants, firefighters, or bystanders.
- 10083680"For rear discharge mixers built before october 31, 2015 on mack chassis with mcneilus command center controls that had any oem service completed at a mack dealership, it IS possible the dealer connected into the vehicles engine control unit (vecu). Once the dealer connected to the vehicles engine control unit, a parameter in the mack software was unknowingly changed from a 1 to a 0. This parameter change caused the remote mixer throttle not to work. If the remote throttle does not work, throttle increases for mixer functions need to be controlled through the cab controls, instead of remotely. If the remote throttle does not work, chassis vehicle function IS not affected. The remote throttle controls mixer functions only."
