VIA USPS CERTIFIED/REGISTERED MAIL
Dear «MODEL» Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
McElrath has decided that a defect, that relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain model year 2017 – 2020 McElrath VX30-800 and VX50-800 vacuum excavator trailers. McLaughlin is administering this campaign on behalf of McElrath.
TRAILER FRAME FAILURE MAY OCCUR
During towing, higher than expected frame loading may result in bending and/or fatigue cracks of the trailer frame main beam. If a fracture occurs, unpredictable trailer handling may result.
DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY POSSIBLE
When towing the vacuum excavator on public roadways, a crash may occur resulting in death or serious injury if the trailer frame fails. Property or equipment damage may also occur.
IMMEDIATE MACHINE MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED
VMK00-0504has been created to provide the necessary parts and instructions to replace to reinforce the trailer frame. The kit must be installed as soon as possible.
Please contact your authorized, independent Vermeer dealer immediately to arrange a mutually acceptable time and location to install VMK00-0504 at no cost to you for labor or materials. The installation of this kit is estimated at 3.5 hours of labor. If the Vermeer dealer travels to the unit to install the kit, costs may be incurred by the owner. You must have your machine upgraded for these safety features.

THREE STAGE CYCLONIC FILTRATION.
Engineered to prolong filter and blower life, the
system is suitable for wet and dry applications.
The cyclones use a tuned vortex system in which
the outer vortex spiral forces small particles to fall
into a separate canister. The filtered stream then
passes up through the inner cyclone tube and
carried to the final poly filter.
LOCKABLE CONTROL PANEL. All machine
controls and gauges are secured and out of the
elements.
CAM-OVER REAR DOOR. Provides a 360-degree
positive seal, even under reverse pressure without
additional clamping requirements. The highly reliable
cam-over door has no in-tank moving parts, so all
maintenance is external.
NO HASSLE HOSE. Hang the suction hose on the
side of the machine when moving between jobsites
instead of coiling or disconnecting it, increasing
productivity and reducing operator fatigue.
IN-TANK WASH-DOWN. Delivers a highpressure
water spray to the tank interior helping
simultaneously dump material and clean the inside
of the tank. Saves clean up time and makes
it easier to remove difficult debris.
AUTO BELT TENSIONERS. Keeps proper belt
tension at all times and extends belt life.
