Terex Technical Support
Terex Technical Support team members work closely with customers on a myriad of troubleshooting, repairs, and rebuild questions.
“Whether it is on the phone, in person at nationwide Service Centers, customer locations, at our annual Service School, or through online resources, we are focused on improving safe work practices and productivity of our customers,” said Kenny Vlasman, Customer Service Manager.
In 2023, 13 new Tech Tips topics, six of which featured videos, were released to customers and users of Terex Aerial Devices, Digger Derricks, and Z-45 Substation Utility Boom Lifts.
“If one person asks a question, we know there are many others facing the same challenges. That’s why the Technical Service and Support Department takes the time to produce Tech Tips throughout the year,” said Vlasman.
The company has been creating these Tech Tips since 2012. Currently the archive contains more than 200 topics.
Some information is applicable to anyone servicing or troubleshooting utility equipment, regardless of the make or model. Tech Tip #195 is an example.
