What's wrong
Liftmoore, Inc. is recalling Sure Power Battery Equalizers, part number 12040E00, sold as replacement parts for installation and use on certain 2001 through 2006 6036WX crane trucks. The specific potting compound used in the subject products for insulation was found to be capable of conducting electricity after being exposed to heat.
The risk
Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.

Liftmoore will notify owners, and dealers will replace any affected battery equalizer, free of charge. Owners may contact Liftmoore customer service at 1-713-688-5533. Liftmoore's number for this recall is 13E-050.
