Genie Articulated Boom Lift SX-180

Air cleaner element maintenance

Complete the hydraulic oil testing with an oil distributor

Did the hydraulic oil pass testing at the 2000 hour maintenance interval?

Schedule quarterly oil testing by an oil distributor

Remove the drain plug from the hydraulic tank and completely drain the tank into a suitable container

- 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

Ensure the boom is fully retracted and in the stowed position

Ensure the machine is on a firm, level surface

Jib Rotator Fastener Torque Check

Check the Jib Rotator Fastener torque

Confirm each jib rotator outer mounting bolt is torqued in sequence to specification using a star pattern

Repeat the procedure for the inner mounting bolts

Jib boom rotate bearing bolts torque (ft-Ibs)

Jib boom rotate bearing bolts torque (Nm)

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

Is the boom fully retracted and in the stowed position?

Is the machine on a firm, level surface?

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