Genie Articulated Boom Lift Z-45 XC

- Test the Dual Capacity and Platform Overload System - SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC and SX-135 XC Models Genie specifications require that this procedure be performed annually OR when the machine fails to lift the maximum rated load

Testing the platform overload system regularly is essential to safe machine operation. Continued use of an improperly operating platform overload system could result in the system not sensing an overloaded platform condition. Machine stability could be compromised resulting in the machine tipping over

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

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

Note: Failure to remove all weight, tools and accessories from the platform will result in an inaccurate test

2. Turn the key switch to ground control and pull out the red Emergency Stop button to the on position at both ground and platform controls

3. Using a suitable lifting device, place a test weight of 600 lbs / 272kg in the center of the platform. Secure the weight to the platform

Note: The test weight may be within -0% / +5%

Result: The unrestricted range of motion indicator light is on at ground controls

- Check Fuel hoses and clamp bands

- Check Fan belt tension and damage

- Check Battery electrolyte level

- Clean Air cleaner element (Replace the element after 6 times cleaning)

- Clean Fuel filter (element type)

- Replace Oil filter cartridge, Z482

- Replace Oil filter cartridge, D1105, WG972

- Test the Turntable Level Sensor - Z-135/70, ZX-135/70, SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, SX-150 and SX-180

A properly functioning level sensor (SCON) is essential to safe machine operation. The ECM at the ground controls (CON) monitors the position and angle of the machine using the signal from the level sensor. The level sensor signal is used to control the maximum working height of the primary and secondary booms

Note: A digital level will be required to perform this procedure

Note: A kit is available through Genie Product Support (Genie part number 58351). This kit includes a digital level with a magnetic base and cable harnesses

Note: A properly calibrated digital level is essential to proper machine calibration. Refer to the manufactures calibration information

Note: Use the following chart to identify the description of each LCD screen control button used in this procedure

Note: Perform this procedure with the booms in the fully stowed position and the axles fully extended

1. Place the machine on a firm surface that has a side slope greater than 2° (6.5 inches / 16.5 cm) but less than 5° (16 inches / 40.6 cm)

2. Place a digital level that has been calibrated to gravity on the X axis of the turntable

- Check for leaks Oil, fuel and coolant systems

- Inspect and Adjust the Boom Extend/Retract Cables

Genie specifications require that this procedure be performed quarterly for the first year of ownership or after the boom extend or retract cables have been replaced

After the first year this quarterly inspection is not required. Refer to the Annual Inspection procedure appropriate for your machine

Manufacturers specifications require that this procedure be performed by personnel that are competent in cable / wire rope inspection

Note: Additional or more frequent inspections may be required due to the following:

• exposed to hostile or corrosive environmental conditions
