Vactor Manufacturing hair pin of the mounting pin that attaches the debris body hoist (dump) to the SUB-FRAME is not sufficient to retain the mounting pin for the entire life expectancy of the vehicle.
The short version
VACTOR MANUFACTURING reported a problem with the structure body. Here is what owners need to know.
THE HAIR PIN OF THE MOUNTING PIN THAT ATTACHES THE DEBRIS BODY HOIST (DUMP) TO THE SUB-FRAME IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO RETAIN THE MOUNTING PIN FOR THE ENTIRE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE VEHICLE.
IF THE HAIR PIN COMES OUT OF THE RETAINING PIN, THE RETAINING PIN CAN WORK ITSELF OUT OF THE MOUNT. SHOULD THIS OCCUR WHILE THE DUMP BODY IS IN THE UP POSITION, IT COULD TILT OVER BACKWARDS, POSSIBLY INJURING THE OPERATOR OR PERSONNEL NEAR THE VEHICLE.
VACTOR WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND REPLACE THE HAIR PIN WITH A COTTER PIN FREE OF CHARGE.
