1992-2009 Terex Texoma 330 Recall 10V059: Extension Movement

Recall 10V059 affects 54 1992-2009 Terex Texoma 330 pressure diggers for unintended movement in the polesetter extension. Repair is free through Terex.

Terex is recalling 54 1992-2009 Texoma 330 pressure diggers because the polesetter extension can move 4 to 6 inches when other functions are operated. That unintended movement creates a danger to the operator and raises the risk of serious injury or death; the Terex dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The polesetter extension on 1992-2009 Terex Texoma 330 pressure diggers is the telescoping arm used to position and handle utility poles after the drill makes the hole. A hydraulic cylinder moves that extension, so hydraulic pressure is supposed to raise, lower, or hold the arm only when the operator commands that function.

On affected units, the extension does not always stay fixed while other hydraulic functions are being used. The campaign states that the extension can move 4 to 6 inches without that movement being selected. That means the operator is working one function while the polesetter extension shifts from its expected position.

There is no warning sign before failure. The first sign is the unwanted extension movement itself, seen while another function is being operated.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific vehicle.

What's the safety risk?

Unintended extension movement can put the operator in danger and result in death or serious injury. Keep people clear of the extension, stop operation if the equipment moves unexpectedly, and arrange recall service before further use. Repair will be free at any franchised Terex dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 1992-2009 Terex Texoma 330 is included in this recall.
  2. Check your records for the Terex owner notice mailed April 16, 2010, then call Terex if you do not have it.
  3. Contact Terex's utilities warranty department at 1-605-884-3892 for recall repair instructions and reference recall number 10V059.
  4. Avoid operating the polesetter extension until Terex confirms the hydraulic-cylinder repair is complete.
  5. Bring any recall paperwork and service history when the unit goes in for the free repair.

What happens at the repair

Terex's remedy calls for the affected vehicle to be repaired free of charge. Because the remedy status is not listed as open in the campaign data, treat scheduling as a service confirmation step before moving the truck. A Terex technician will repair the Texoma 330 auger drill and its telescoping polesetter extension so the hydraulic cylinder does not allow unintended extension movement while other functions are operated. Parts and labor are covered once the repair is available. Have the service desk reference recall 10V059 and Terex's utilities warranty department if they need campaign support.
