PROBLEM

The existing generator group on certain 794 AC, 796 AC, and 798 AC Off-Highway Trucks can have coupling bolts improperly tightened which can cause wear on the generator rotor shaft. If the generator rotor shaft has wear it will stop the machine, lose propel, and the generator will have to be replaced.

This is an initial order recommendation only, and the ultimate responsibility for ordering the total number of parts needed to satisfy the program lies with the dealer.
