Genie Genie Articulated Boom Lift S-40 TraX S-40 TraX

Maintaining proper torque on the turntable bearing bolts is essential to safe machine operation. Improper bolt torque could result in an unsafe operating condition and component damage.

Access to the upper and lower turntable bearing bolts will vary depending on model.

Select the model of the machine

Raised the (primary) boom and placed a safety chock on the lift cylinder rod?

Lowered the boom onto the lift cylinder safety chock OR supported the boom assembly with a suitable lifting device?

WARNING! Crushing hazard. Keep hands away from the cylinder and all moving parts when lowering the boom.

Turned the key switch to the off position?

Using a star pattern, confirmed that each turntable mounting bolt is torqued in sequence to specification?

Raised the boom and removed the safety chock OR lifting device?

Check oil, fuel, and coolant systems for leaks

Clean/replace air cleaner element

- 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

- Test the Safety Envelope Limit Switches, Z-135/70, ZX-135/70, SX-105 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, SX-150 and SX-180 Models

Testing the machine envelope safety limit switches is critical to safe machine operation. If the boom is allowed to operate when a safety switch is not functioning correctly, the machine stability could be compromised and may tip over

Note: Perform this procedure with the boom in the stowed position

Note: Perform this procedure with the axles extended

Note: Two people will be required to perform this procedure

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

Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 Models:

Secondary Boom #1 Retracted Safety Limit Switch, LSS1RS

1. Working at the platform end of the turntable, support and secure the lower turntable riser end cover to a suitable lifting device

Warning: This procedure requires trained personnel with PPE!

This maintenance procedure does not apply to the following models: S-80 XC, S-85 XC, SX-125 XC, SX-135 XC, Z-45 XC

Is the machine model applicable for this procedure?

If the machine model is not applicable, stop the procedure

Locate the grease fittings on each pivot pin of the platform overload assembly

Thoroughly pump grease into each grease fitting

Grease pumped into each fitting?
