Genie Articulated Boom Lift Z80'

- Check for leaks Oil, fuel and coolant systems

- Clean Air filter discharge valve

Maintaining the boom wear pads in good condition is essential to safe machine operation. Wear pads are placed on boom tube surfaces to provide a low friction, replaceable wear pad between moving parts. Improperly shimmed wear pads or continued use of extremely worn wear pads may result in component damage and unsafe operating conditions

1. Measure each wear pad. Replace the wear pad once it reaches the minimum allowable thickness. If the wear pad is still within specification, shim as necessary to obtain minimum clearance with zero binding

2. Extend and retract the boom through the entire range of motion to check for tight spots that may cause binding or scraping of the boom

Note: Always maintain squareness between the outer and inner boom tubes

3. Grease the platform end bottom wear pads with a suitable lubricant

SX-150: Grease the #1 and #2 boom tubes

SX-180: Grease the #0 and #1 boom tubes

- 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

Contact with electrically charged circuits could result in death or serious injury. Remove all rings, watches and other jewelry

Bodily injury hazard. Batteries contain acid. Avoid spilling or contacting battery acid

Neutralize battery acid spills with baking soda and water

Note: Fully charge the batteries and allow the batteries to rest 24 hours before performing this procedure to allow the battery cells to equalize

- 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;
