Genie Articulated Boom Lift Z-45/25J RT

- Test the Key Switches - ALC1000 Models

Proper key switch action and response is essential to safe machine operation. Failure of either key switch to function properly could cause a hazardous operating situation

This maintenance procedure applies to the following models: S-100, S-100HD, S-105, S-120, S-120HD, S-125, SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, SX-150, SX-180, Z-80/60, Z-135/70 and Zx-135/70

There are two key switches on the machine - the Main key switch and the Bypass/Recovery key switch

The Main key switch controls machine operation from the ground or platform controls

When the Bypass/Recovery key switch is turned to the bypass position, the primary boom can be elevated with the axles retracted (if equipped with retractable axles). This feature of the machine is especially helpful for storage purposes or when loading the machine for transport

When the Bypass/Recovery key switch is turned and held to the recovery position, the emergency power unit turns on and starts a sequence to lower the platform

This feature of the machine is especially helpful if the operator in the platform cannot lower the boom, if the platform controls become inoperative or for returning the machine to a safe position when the safety switches have been tripped

Note: Perform this procedure on a firm, level surface with the machine in the stowed position

- Check for leaks Oil, fuel and coolant systems

- Grease the Extendable Axles - S-100, S-105, S-120, S-125, S100HD and S-120HD

Manufacturer specifications require that this procedure be performed every 50 hours

Lubricating the front and rear axles helps to ensure the smooth operation of the axles over the lifetime of the product; Two fittings on each axle are provided to apply grease the top and bottom sliding wear pads

1. Locate the grease fittings on the extendable axles covers

2. 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

3. Cycle the extending axles in and out

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