Altec Industries affected brush chippers may have improper or missing welds.
The short version
Altec Industries Inc. reported a problem with the equipment. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected brush chippers may have improper or missing welds. Additionally, the DSC6 chippers may be equipped with incorrect anvil spacers.
Improper or missing welds and/or incorrect anvil spacers may cause the anvil to detach and interfere with the cutting blades, significantly damaging the chipper and increasing the risk of injury.
Altec will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair any of the missing or incorrect anvil welds, and will replace the improper anvil spacers, free of charge.
