Customer Service Notice

Rotation Bearing Cap Screw Inspection

Altec is committed to providing our customers with safe and reliable products from initial delivery throughout the useful life of the machine.

Altec has received reports of isolated failures of the heads on some of the cap screws on the affected units. Investigation of the problem has found that the fasteners in a specific lot were not manufactured to the Altec fastener coating specification. The insufficient coating may lead to hydrogen embrittlement which could cause the cap screw head to fail prematurely. Failing rotation bearing cap screws can cause uncontrolled movement. Death or serious injury can result from uncontrolled movement.

Altec requires the following actions be completed on the affected units.

  • Perform a torque check on both the inner and outer races of the turntable rotationbearing cap screws using the Annual Torque Inspection Procedure in the Maintenance Manual.
  • If any cap screws are broken, remove the unit from service and replace all of the cap screws in that rotation bearing race.
  • Look for the lot number embossed on thehead of each cap screw. Record the head marking on the inspection form at the end of the CSN.
  • If any cap screw is marked with 3066 on the head of the fastener (refer to Figure 1), replace the cap screws in that race no later than 30 days after the inspection.
  • If the fasteners are not marked with 3066 Figure 1 — Cap Screw Head Marking and are not broken, the inspection is completed and the unit can be returned to service and normal torque inspections can be resumed.
  • Complete the inspection form at the end of this CSN and return it to Altec.

Altec has kits available for the cap screw replacement.

Altec will perform the repair for free.  If the customer, or the customer’s warranty provider performs the repair, a warranty claim must be submitted to be reimbursed for the cost of the parts and/or labor. Altec will allow up to $675 for the labor to perform this repair. There is no warranty reimbursement for the inspection.
