Kovatch Mobile Equipment Corp. "KME" is recalling certain 2018 Predator Tractor-Drawn Aerial "TDA" vehicles. A weld may fail on the waterway pipes, possibly resulting in a pipe detaching from the vehicle.
Failure of the weld while the waterway has water in it increases the risk of injury to those nearby.
KME will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected sections of the lower waterways, free of charge. The recall began April 18, 2019. Owners may contact KME customer service at 1-800-235-3928.
