Section A contains general concepts that are decisive
for the knowledge of the main parts of the machine.
It also contains all necessary data for a correct
identication of the machine, the technical features of
the machine, etc.
Section B is especially addressed to the personnel, who
shall operate, repair and service the machine, and, in
case of companies with a wide eet of machines, to
those responsible for safety.
It describes the essential compulsory qualities of the
personnel in charge and other important information
for the safety of persons and things.
Section C is mainly addressed to the operators who
operate the machine. This section illustrates all control
devices.
Additionally, it contains the main use instructions -i.e.
engine starting, machine parking, machine storing.
Section D is addressed to those responsible for
maintenance and the servicemen.
The section describes the maintenance schedule and
the relevant intervals.
Section G contains tables and various enclosed
documents like load charts, wiring diagrams, hydraulic
schemes, torque wrench setting table, etc.
Sections are subdivided into chapters and paragraphs
that are numbered progressively.
The quickest way to look for information is the reference
to the general index or the titles of the single chapters
and paragraphs that represent keys for an easy
consultation.
Take care of this manual and keep it in an
accessible place within the machine, even
after its reading, so that it will always be within
reach if in doubt.
If you are unsure about anything, please address to
GENIE Assistance Service or to your agent/dealer:
addresses, phone and fax numbers are printed in
the cover and in the title-page of this manual.
Any difference between the contents of this manual
and the real functional character of the machine
can be attributed to either a machine manufactured
before the issue of this manual or to a manual going
to be updated after some changed effected on the
machine.
Always contact GENIE Assistance Service for any
updated version of this manual and any additional
information.
Section E deals with the failure diagnostics.
Section F makes a list of the main interchangeable
attachments that can be coupled to the machine:

SYMBOLS
SYMBOLS
When using the machine, operators could have to face
some situations requiring special care and particular
knowledge.
When these situations involve the safety of operators or
bystanders, the machine efciency and proper utilisation,
this handbook stresses these specic instructions by
means of SPECIAL SYMBOLS.
GTH-3007
Yellow with safety alert symbol: used to indicate
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
There are seven special (or safety) symbols in this
manual, always combined with keywords that class the
situations according to their danger degree.
The symbols are always followed by a text explaining
the situation taken into account, the attention to be paid
to such situation, the method and the behaviour to be
adopted. When necessary, it stresses prohibitions or
supplies instructions to prevent dangers.
Sometimes, it can be followed by illustrations.
We list below the special (or safety) symbols according
to the relative degree of a hazard:
Safety Alert symbol: when you see this symbol, be
alert to the possibility of personal injury. Strictly obey
all the safety messages accompanying this symbol
to avoid the risk of serious injury or death.
Red: used to indicate an imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will result in death
or serious injury.
Yellow without safety alert symbol: used to indicate
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in damage to the machine or
the systems.
Green: used to draw the attention to important
information on environment protection.
Green: used to indicate operation and maintenance
information
WHEN READING THIS MANUAL, PAY THE
GREATEST ATTENTION TO THESE SPECIAL
SYMBOLS AND THE EXPLANATION OF THE
SITUATIONS THEY EMPHASIZE.
The manual in electronic format also contains the
following symbol:
which enables the user to return to the
table of contents.
Orange: used to indicate a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.

A-3 ALLOWED USE
A-3.1 ALLOWED USE
The handlers have been designed and manufactured for
lifting, handling and transporting agricultural or industrial
products by means of specic attachments (see section
F) manufactured by TEREXLIFT srl.
Any other use is considered contrary to that established
and, therefore, improper.
The compliance with and the strict respect of the
operation, maintenance and repair conditions, indicated
by the Manufacturer, represent an essential part of the
allowed use.
The handler must be used and serviced only by operators
knowing its characteristics and the safety procedures
in depth.
It is also essential to comply with the safety at work
legislation, the precautions concerning safety and
industrial medicine as well as the local and national
road trafc regulations.
Effecting changes or carrying out interventions on
the machine other than those of routine maintenance
is expressly forbidden. Any modification of
the machine not carried out by GENIE or an
authorised assistance centre involves the automatic
invalidation of the conformity of the machine to the
Directive 98/37/EC.
A-3.2 IMPROPER USE
Improper use means a utilisation of the handler following
working criteria that do not comply with the instructions
of this manual, and that, in general, may result in risks
for both operators and bystanders.
We list below some of the most frequent and
hazardous situations of improper use:
- Carrying passengers on the machine
- Not strictly complying with the operation and
maintenance instructions of this handbook
- Working beyond the handler working limits
- Working on unstable edges of ditches
- Driving crosswise on slopes or hills
- Working during a storm
- Working on steep slopes
- U s in g a tt a c h m e n t s o th e r t h a n t h o s e
recommended
- Using attachments not approved or directly
manufactured by Terexlift
- A pplying loads in diff erent points of the
attachment holding plate
- Working in potentially explosive areas
- W o r k i n g in co n f i ne d and no n- v e nt i l at e d
environments.
A-3.3 RESIDUAL HAZARDS
Although the machine has been designed and
manufactured according to the latest technology and
all expected hazards have been eliminated, some
operations performed by the machine operator can result
in potentially hazardous situations. Among them:
• Hazards deriving from a too high work or transfer
speed in relation to the load handled or the ground
condition of the jobsite.
• Hazards deriving from work procedures adopted
during the check or replacement of a block valve
(residual pressure - uncontrolled movements).
• Hazards deriving from work procedures adopted
while disassembling parts of the machine -e.g. the
cylinders, without supporting mobile parts suitably
(risk of uncontrolled fall of the mobile part).
• Hazard deriving from an accidental overturning
of the machine in the event the operator has not
fastened the safety belts.

A-4.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN
COMPONENTS
Hydrostatic transmission
This unit consists of parts which drive the machine
shifting, and namely:
- a variable displacement pump connected to the
thermal engine by an elastic joint
- a motor with variable displacement and automatic
adjustment in relation to the wheel torque required;
it is directly installed on the front axle together with
the two-speed gearbox
- a hydraulic oil lter, placed on the injection line from
the tank
- a heat exchanger to cool the circuit down.
Motion is transmitted to the rear axle from the gearbox
through a Cardan shaft.
Engine
The thermal engine is equipped with a heat exchanger
which uses the engine oil as cooling medium.
Steering axles/(front and rear) differential gears
The differential axles transmit the motion to the wheels.
The locking device acting on the front axle enables the
machine to move also on low grip grounds.
Tyres
The machine is equipped with tyres suitably sized for
the maximum load allowed on the handler.
When worn, they shall be replaced with new ones having
the same dimensions and loading capacity.
Overload warning system
The overload warning system installed on the vehicle
enables the operator to work under absolute safety
conditions. A eight-LED display shows the stability
variation. When the 7th red LED lights up, all machine
movements are stopped, but for the boom retraction
under safe conditions.
Boom hydraulic circuit
It consists of a gear pump connected to the thermal
engine which, through a special valve, dispenses oil
to the hydraulic drive and a distributor for the following
functions:
- boom lifting/lowering
- telescopic boom extension/retraction
- attachment rotation
- attachment locking
Braking circuit
It consists of an independent circuit: the pedal directly
acts on the brake pump which dispenses oil to the front
axle braking unit with discs in oil bath.
The parking brake, of negative type, acts on the braking
unit of the service brake. This brake is engaged every
time the handler’s engine is stopped or pressing down
the light pushbutton located to the right of the driving
place.
Telescopic boom
The machine is equipped with a telescopic boom with
hydraulic-driven extension. The telescopes slides on
interchangeable pads made of wearproof material.
Driving cab
Type-approved driving cab in compliance with standards
ISO 3449 and EN 13510 (ROPS and FOPS).
A-4.3 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
The machine can be tted with a wide range of
optional accessories: please address to GENIE sales
network.

INTRODUCTION
This section provides the operator a practical guide for
the gradual learning of the machine use.
The operator should get into the driving cab and carry
out the preliminary adjustments, then memorise the
position of the different controls and instruments.
The familiarisation with the controls ensures not only
a correct use during the working phases, but also a
prompt and timely intervention of the operator, when
he shall carry out sudden manoeuvres to safeguard his
safety and the machine integrity.
It is necessary to learn how to use and foresee the
machine reactions. Learn how to operate the machine
controls in a safe and open place, without obstacles
and anybody standing around. Do not ram the controls.
Operate them slowly to understand their effect on the
machine.
C-1 PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
Fundamentals
It is the operator responsibility to perform a preoperation inspection and routine maintenance.
Pre-operation inspection means a visual inspection
performed by the operator prior to each work shift.
The inspection has to be carried out on the machine to
detect possible faults before the operator starts testing
the machine functions.
The pre-operation inspection also helps understand if
some routine maintenance procedures are required.
The operator can only perform the routine maintenance
procedures envisaged in this manual.
See the list on the next page and check each single
component.
If the machine is damaged or a non-authorized
modication has been done, the machine must be
tagged and removed from service.
Repairs must be carried out by qualied technical
personnel according to the manufacturer’s specications.
After any repair, the operator should repeat the preoperation inspection before testing the machine
functions.

C-3.4 Control lever
Handlers are equipped with an hydraulically driven
servo-controlled lever.
The lever is equipped with a button for locking/releasing
the attachments and a wheel to operate the boom
telescope extension.
When shifted to one of the four directions (right/left,
forward/back), it controls the boom lifting/lowering and
the forward/back pitching of the attachment frame.
It is also equipped with an intentional control button
that must be pressed and held in position until the
movement is completed.
If the button is not pressed down, the lever, though
operated, does not perform any function.
Seize the control lever correctly and move it
gently.
The motion speed of the actuators depends on
the lever position: a small motion results in a slow
motion of the actuators; vice versa, a full range
motion of the lever corresponds to the max. speed
of the actuator.
GTH-3007
The control lever shall be operated only when
correctly seated in the driving place.
Before operating the control lever, make sure
that nobody is within the working range of the

C-4 SETUP
C-4.1 BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
• To ensure safe conditions to the operators and
the bystanders, and a longer life to your machine,
perform a walk-around inspection before starting
the engine.
• Remove any dirt or rubbish from the cab interior,
especially from pedals and control levers.
• Remove oil, grease and mud from pedals and control
levers.
• Make sure that your hands and shoe soles are clean
and dry.
• Check the seat belts can be fastened properly.
• Check that lights, indicators, side/tail lights, hazard
indicator lights, wipers and horn are in working
order.
• Adjust the driving seat so that you can reach all
control levers comfortably and fully depress the
brake pedal without moving your back from the
driving seat.
• Adjust the rear view mirrors to give you a good view
close behind the machine when you are correctly
seated.
• Check the parking brake is engaged.
C-4.1.1 Checks at the machine start-up
When power is turned on, the load limiting system
activates automatically. If the power supplied is correct,
the green light 4 above the Terex logo comes on. The
display remains off while the system runs a self-test.
After that, the system is activated and 0 appears on
the display.
If during the check phase, the load limiting system nds
a fault, it enters the safety mode automatically blocking
any dangerous manoeuvres and an error message starts
ashing on the display. For any further information, refer
to chap. C-5.2.
Also check the efciency of the safety devices as
described in chap. D-3.15, namely:
• overload warning system
• joystick pushbutton
• parking brake proximity switch
• emergency pushbutton
• machine start control
• seat micro-switch.
C-4.2 STARTING THE ENGINE
For the low temperature starting, see paragraph C-
4.4.
• Set the forward/ back spee d lever to neutral
position.
• Step on the gas pedal.
• To start the engine, turn the ignition switch to position
. Release the switch when the engine starts. If the
engine does not start within 20 seconds, release the
key and wait at least 2 minutes before attempting
again.
• After the start-up, let the
engine run at idle for some
seconds before engaging a
gear; this allows for a gradual
warm up of the engine oil and
a better lubrication.
• In case of engine jumpstarting, remove the booster
c a b l e s ( s e e f ol l ow i n g
chapter).
If the light indicators do not switch off/on when
engine is running, immediately stop the machine
and nd and rectify the fault.
Engine cannot be started if the speed switch is not
in the neutral position.
After the start-up, when leaving the driving place,
the engine continues to run. DO NOT LEAVE THE
DRIVING PLACE BEFORE HAVING SHUT THE
ENGINE DOWN, LOWERED THE BOOM TO THE
GROUND AND ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE.

C-4.3 JUMP-STARTING THE ENGINE
Do not start the engine using a quick charge booster
to avoid any damage to the electronic boards.
When jump-starting the engine through the battery
of another machine, make sure that the two vehicles
cannot collide to prevent formation of sparks.
Batteries give off a ammable gas and sparks may
burn it and cause an explosion.
Do not smoke when checking the electrolyte
level.
Keep any metal object like buckles, watch straps,
etc. clear of the battery positive (+) terminal. These
elements can short between the terminal and nearby
metal work and the operator can get burned.
The booster supply must have the same rated
voltage and output of the battery installed on the
handler.

• Disconnect the cables. Remove rst the negative
terminal from the frame earth, then from the booster
supply. Disconnect the positive terminal from the
machine battery, then from the booster supply.
To jump-start the engine:
• Turn any users off by the special control levers.
• Put the gear lever to neutral and engage the parking
brake.
• Ensure the machine battery A is connected to the
frame earth, the terminals are well tightened and
the electrolyte level is regular.
• Connect the two batteries as shown in the gure.
Connect first the positive terminals of the two
batteries, then the negative terminal of the booster
supply B to the machine frame earth.
• If the booster supply is installed on a second vehicle,
make sure that the latter does not touch the handler.
To avoid damage to the electronic instruments
of the machine, the engine of the machine
where the booster supply is installed, must be
stopped.
• Turn the ignition key and start the handler, then
follow the procedure explained in chapter C-4.2 “Starting the engine”.
Use only a 12V battery; other devices like battery
chargers, etc. may cause an explosion of the battery
or result in damage to the electrical system.

Before using the machine, make sure that the rst
green LED of the overload warning system is ON.
The overload warning system must not be used to
check the load going to be lifted: it has only been
designed to signal possible unbalances of the
machine along its motion axis.
Such unbalances may also be caused by an abrupt
operation of the levers during the load handling. If,
during work, several indicators light up, operate the
levers more smoothly.

C-5.3.2 Working phases
When forks are correctly spaced, the handler is ready
to use.
Work can be subdivided into three different phases:
loading, transfer and unloading.
Loading phase
• Approach the load to the handled perpendicularly
an d check that the machi ne is level on the
inclinometer.
• Insert the forks under the load and raise the load
some centimetres.
• Pitch the forks back and make sure that the overload
warning system LEDs are in limits.
Transfer phase
• Do not start or brake abruptly.
• Drive to the unloading point cautiously and keep the
load 20÷30 cm from the ground.
• Suit the machine speed to the ground conditions to
avoid dangerous jumps, side skids of the vehicle
and possible load falls.
• When driving on slopes or ramps, hold the load
uphill.
GTH-3007
Do not move off when the load is raised 20÷30 cm
above the ground. Risk of machine overturning or
load fall.
Do not drive on slopes sideways; this wrong
manoeuvre is one of the main reasons for accidents
due to vehicle overturning.
Unloading phase
• Drive to the unloading point with straight wheels and
bring the machine to a smooth stop leaving enough
space to operate the boom.
• Put the parking brake and set the transmission to
neutral.
• Position the load some centimetres above the
desired position and set the forks level.
• Lower the load and make sure it is level.
• Carefully withdraw the forks by operating the boom
retraction control and, if necessary, raise or lower
the boom as forks come out.
• When the forks are clear of the load, set them to
transfer position.
• Release the parking brake and start a new working
cycle.

collected, eliminated and/or recycled in accordance
with the laws of the UE.
In Italy, used or discarded batteries have been
classed as “Toxic wastes” in accordance with
Presidential decree n. 397 of 09/09/1988 and Law
n. 475 O.G. n. 18 of 09/11/1988 because they contain
lead and sulphuric acid. Their disposal through
recycling must be done only through companies
authorised to do so and belonging to the “Consorzio
Obbligatorio Batterie Esauste e dei riuti piombosi”
(Cobat) which collect and dispose of used lead-acid
batteries throughout the national territory.
Used batteries must be kept in a dry and conned
place. Make sure the battery is dry and the cell
plugs are tight. Place a sign on the battery to warn
of not using it. If before disposal the battery is left
in the open air, it will be necessary to dry, smear
the box and the elements with a coat of grease and
tighten the plugs. Do not rest the battery on the
ground; it is always advisable to rest it on a pallet

D-3 MAINTENANCE JOBS
All maintenance interventions must be carried
out with engine stopped, parking brake engaged,
working attachments at on the ground and gear
lever in neutral.
When raising a component for maintenance
purposes, secure it in a safe way before any
maintenance intervention.
GTH-3007
The qualied staff charged with the maintenance
of the hydraulic circuit must clean all areas around
with care before any intervention.
The handling and disposing of used oils can be
ruled by local or national regulations. Address to
authorised centres.
D-3.1 DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY
During maintenance or repair works, and while welding,
turn off the battery main switch, located behind the rear
right wheel compartment (C-4.5, page C-25).
Any intervention on the hydraulic circuit must be
carried out by skilled personnel.
The hydraulic circuit of this machine is tted with
pressure accumulators. You and others could be
seriously injured if accumulators are not completely
depressurised.
To depressurise the accumators, just steer the
machine wheels some times with engine shut down
until noticing a gradual binding of the handwheel.
Before any operation on hydraulic lines or
components, make sure there is no residual
pressure. For this purpose, stop the engine, engage
the parking brake and operate the control levers
of the distributors in both working directions
(alternately) to depressurise the hydraulic circuit.
High pressure lines must be replaced by qualied
personnel only.
Any foreign matters entering the closed circuit
may result in a sudden deterioration of the
transmission.

SHAFTING ALIGNMENT
During operation, the alignment of the front and rear
axles of the machine can be subject to variations. This
can depend on an oil blow-by from the steering control
circuit, or on a steering of both axles when front and
rear wheels are not perfectly aligned.
To x this problem, rather than checking the alignment
visually, follow the procedure below:
1) Move to a solid and level ground
2)
Set the steering selection switch 11 to “four-wheel
steer” (pos. 2)
3) Rotate the steering up to its stop (either to the right
or to the left)
4) Set the steering selection switch to “two-wheel
steer” (pos. 0)
5) Rotate the steering up to its stop (turn in the same
direction as above)
6) Reset the steering selection switch to “four-wheel
steer” (pos. 2)
7) Rotate the steering (to the side opposite to point 3)
so that the rear axle reaches its stop
8) Reset the steering selection switch to “two-wheel
steer” (pos. 0)
9) Rotate the steering (to the same side as in point 7)
so that the front axle reaches its stop
10) Reset the steering selection switch to “four-wheel
steer” (pos. 2)
Now the wheels should be re-aligned.

MAINTENANCE
D-4 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
All maintenance interventions must be carried
out with engine stopped, parking brake engaged,
working attachments on the ground and gearbox
lever in neutral.
When raising a component for maintenance
purposes, secure it in a safe way before carrying
out any maintenance.
Any intervention on the electrical system unless
performed by authorized personnel, is expressly
forbidden.
D-4.1 BATTERY
• Check the electrolyte level every 250 working hours;
if necessary, add distilled water.
• Ensure the uid is 5÷6 mm above the plates and the
cell levels are correct.
• Check the cable clips are well secured to the battery
terminals. To tighten the clips, always use a box
wrench, never pliers.
• Protect the terminals smearing them with pure
vaseline.
• Remove the battery and store it in a dry place, when
the machine is not used for a long time.
GTH-3007
• Battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. It can
burn you if it touches your skin and eyes. Always
wear goggles and protective gloves, and handle
the battery with caution to prevent spillage. Keep
metal objects (watch straps, rings, necklaces)
clear of the battery leads, since they can short
the terminals and burn you.
• Before disconnecting the battery, set all switches
within the cab to OFF.
• To disconnect the battery, disconnect the
negative (-) lead from the frame earth rst.
• To connect the battery, connect the positive (+)
lead rst.
• Recharge the battery far from the machine, in a
well-ventilated place.
• Keep out of items which can produce sparks, of
naked ames or lit cigarettes.
• Do not rest metal objects onto the battery. This
can result in a dangerous short especially during
a recharge.
• Because the electrolyte is highly corrosive, it
must never come in contact with the frame of
the handler or electric/electronic parts. If the
electrolyte comes in contact with these parts,
contact the nearest authorised assistance
centre.
Risk of explosion or shorts. During the recharge,
an explosive mixture with release of hydrogen gas
forms.
Do not add sulphuric acid; add only distilled
water.
