Recall 2016240

The issue

On certain fire trucks, the components that make up the 6" water intake strainer may have been improperly soldered during the manufacturing process. This could lead to degradation in pump performance which could reduce firefighting effectiveness, and potentially increase the risk of injury. Correction: Hale Products recommends an inspection be performed by pulling caps and any suction adapters off of the intake and check the strainer for faulty soldering. If the strainer is found to be missing solder at the joint, Hale Products will send a replacement strainer directly to affected owners.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions d’incendie, les composants du filtre d’admission d’eau de 6 po pourraient avoir été inadéquatement brasés en cours de fabrication. Cela pourrait provoquer une diminution du rendement de la pompe, nuire à la lutte contre les incendies et accroître les risques de blessures. Correction : Hale Products recommande d’effectuer une inspection en retirant tous les capuchons et les adaptateurs d’aspiration du système d’admission et en vérifiant si les brasures du filtre sont défectueuses. Si le filtre est mal brasé à l’emplacement du joint, Hale Products expédiera un filtre directement aux propriétaires concernés.
