Genie Articulated Boom Lift S-40 XC

- Inspect the Hydraulic Filters

Note: There are four types of hydraulic filters: tank return filter, medium pressure filter, high pressure filter and drive motor case drain filter. The quantity and type of filter(s) may vary by model

Models with Filter Condition Indicator:

1. Start the engine from the ground controls

2. Set the engine idle to high rpm (rabbit symbol)

3. Visually inspect the filter condition indicator

• Result: The filter condition indicator is operating in the green area

• Result: The filter condition indicator is operating in the red area. This indicates that the hydraulic filter is being bypassed and the filter should be replaced. Refer to Maintenance Procedure, Replace the Hydraulic Filters

Models without Filter Condition Indicator:

Warning: This procedure requires trained personnel. Perform this procedure with the boom fully retracted and in the stowed position and with the machine on a firm, level surface.

Remove all weight, tools, accessories and equipment from the platform

Turn the key switch to ground control and pull out the red Emergency Stop button to the on position at both the ground and platform controls. Start the engine from the ground controls and level the platform. Do not turn the engine off

Enter the maximum platform capacity as per the machine serial plate

Using a suitable lifting device, place a test weight equal to that of the available capacity in one of the locations shown

Check if the platform overload indicator lights are off at both the ground and platform controls, the alarm is not sounding and the engine is running

Carefully move the test weights to each remaining location on the platform

Check if the platform overload indicator lights are off at both the ground and platform controls, the alarm is not sounding and the engine is running

Add additional weight to the platform that is equal to, but does not exceed 15% of the maximum rated load. Secure the additional weight. Refer to the machine serial plate

Warning: This procedure should be performed every 50 hours

Locate the grease fittings on the extendable axles covers

Thoroughly pump grease into each grease fitting. When grease is pumped into each fitting, a hose directs this lubrication to the top or bottom wear pad

Grease pumped into each fitting?

Cycle the extending axles in and out

Note: Genie recommends that the extending axles be cycled in and out at least once a week

Sign off on the axle lubrication

Required maintenance procedures and additional engine information are available in the manufacturer's manuals. Refer to Specifications, Engine Operator and Maintenance Manuals

- Check the Track Tension and Fastener Torque, TRAX Models - S-40 and S-45 Models

Maintaining proper track tension and properly torqued fasteners is essential to good machine performance and service life; The machine will not operate properly with a track that is incorrectly tensioned. Continued use of a machine with incorrectly tensioned tracks may cause component damage

1. Thoroughly clean the track assembly of any dirt, rocks, clay, etc.

2. Chock the tracks at one end of the machine to prevent the machine from rolling

3. Center a lifting jack of ample capacity (20,000 Ibs / 10,000 kg) under the drive chassis between the tracks at the other end of the machine

4. Lift the machine until the tracks are off the ground and then place jack stands under the drive chassis for support

5. Visually inspect the section of track under the bogey wheels

Result: There should be less than 1 inch / 2.5 cm of gap between the bogey wheels and the inside surface of the track. Proceed to step 7

Result: There is 1 inch / 2.5 cm or more of gap between the bogey wheels and the inside surface of the track. Proceed to step 6
