Altec Industries PTO may leak oil onto the exhaust heat shield thermal blanket.
The short version
Altec Industries Inc. reported a problem with the equipment. Here is what owners need to know.
The PTO may leak oil onto the exhaust heat shield thermal blanket.
Oil absorbed by the exhaust heat shield thermal blanket has an increased risk of a fire from being exposed to hot engine components.
Altec will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the heat shield with a redesigned version, as well as install plumbing to relocate a pressure switch and install hoses with improved routing to increase their distance from heat sources, free of charge.
