Defect

On vehicles equipped with an on-board portable crane, the crimp position of the push-pull cable that detects the position of the limit switch—a safety device that distinguishes between crane-operating and driving states—is improper. As a result, the system may fail to detect the OFF state even when the power is switched off. While driving with the cable in the OFF position, the limit switch may unexpectedly engage and redirect engine power to crane operation, cutting drive power to the tires and rendering the vehicle inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, inspect the cable and replace any unit with a defective crimp with a corrected part.

状況

車載簡易型クレーンにおいて、クレーン作業状態と走行状態を確実に判断するための安全装置であるリミットスイッチの位置検出を行うプッシュプルケーブルのかしめ位置が不適切なため、電源をOFF状態にしても、その状態の検出が出来ないものがある。そのため、当該ケーブルをOFFにして走行している際に、突然リミットスイッチが入り、原動機の動力をクレーン作動状態に切り替えてしまうため、原動機の動力がタイヤに伝達されず、走行不能になるおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、当該ケーブルを点検し、かしめ部が不良のものは対策品に交換する。
