Genie Articulated Boom Lift Z6034

- Grease the Turntable Rotation Bearing and Rotate Gear

Perform this procedure more often if dusty conditions exist and when operating the machine in high temperature environments

Frequent application of lubrication to the turntable bearing and rotate gear is essential to good machine performance and service life. Continued use of an improperly greased bearing and gear will result in component damage

1. Locate the grease fitting for the turntable rotate bearing

2. Pump grease into the turntable rotation bearing. Rotate the turntable in increments of 4 to 5 inches / 10 to 13 cm at a time and repeat this step until the entire bearing has been greased

3. Models with Drive Gear: Apply grease to each tooth of the drive gear, located under the turntable

Models with Worm Drive Gear: Grease each tooth on the outside of the turntable rotation bearing

1. Locate the 2 grease fittings on top of the worm drive housing

- Test the Alarm Package (if equipped)

Note: The alarms and beacon will operate with the engine running or not running

1. 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

Z-80/60, S-80 XC, S-85 XC, S-100, S-105, S-120, S-125, S-100HD, S-120HD, SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, SX-150, SX-180, Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 Models:

Result: The alarm should sound twice. The flashing beacon should be on and flashing

Result: The flashing beacon should be on and flashing

2. Activate the boom down function, hold for a moment and then release it

- Confirm the Proper Brake Configuration

1. Locate the drive hub disconnect cap

2. Check each drive hub disconnect cap to be sure it is in the engaged position

Collision hazard. Be sure that the machine is not in free-wheel or partial free-wheel configuration

Refer to maintenance procedure, Confirm the Proper Brake Configuration

Note: Select a test area that is firm, level and free of obstructions

1. Mark a test line on the ground for reference

- 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

- Test the Platform Self-leveling

1. At the ground controls, lower the boom to the stowed position

2. Activate function enable and adjust the platform to a level position

3. Raise and lower the primary boom through a full cycle

Result: The platform should remain level at all times to within +/-5 degrees;
