- Test the Primary Boom Angle Sensor - SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, SX-150 and SX-180

A properly functioning primary boom angle sensor is essential to safe machine operation. The ECM at the ground controls (TCON) monitors the position and angle of the primary boom using the signal from the primary boom angle sensor

The primary boom angle sensor signal is used to control the ramping of the primary boom, limiting the speed of the primary boom to 2.3 feet / 0.7 meters per second

Note: The turntable level sensor must be tested before starting this procedure. Refer to Maintenance Procedures, Test the Turntable Level Sensor

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

- Check the Free-wheel Configuration

Proper use of the free-wheel configuration is essential to safe machine operation. The free-wheel configuration is used primarily for towing. A machine configured to free-wheel without operator knowledge may cause death or serious injury and property damage

Models with 2 wheel steer will be referenced with Non-steer and steer wheels

Models with 4 wheel steer will be referenced with Circle-end and Square-end wheels

Collision hazard. Select a work site that is firm and level

Component damage hazard. If the machine must be towed, do not exceed 2 mph / 3.2 km/h

Non-steer or Circle-end wheels:

- Inspect the Boom Extend/Retract Cables

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

The boom extend/retract cables are responsible for the extension and retraction of the boom tubes

- Check for leaks Oil, fuel and coolant systems

- Replace engine oil and filter

- Clean/replace air cleaner element

- Check electrical wiring for chafing or damage
