INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
This manual provides information for a safe and proper operation and maintenance of the machine.
STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS
GIVEN IN THIS HANDBOOK! READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS HANDBOOK BEFORE STARTING, USING AND CARRYING
OUT ANY OPERATION WITH AND ON THE
MACHINE.
The handbook is divided into seven sections:
Sect. A GENERAL INFORMATION Sect B SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Sect C OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Sect. D MAINTENANCE Sect. E TROUBLESHOOTING Sect. F OPTIONAL ATTACHMENTS Sect. G TABLES AND ENCLOSURES
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 identification 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 fleet 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.
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.
IMPORTANT
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 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 E deals with the failure diagnostics. Section F makes a list of the main interchangeable
attachments that can be coupled to the machine: dimensions, weight, application field and limits of use.
Section G contains tables and various enclosed documents like load charts, wiring diagrams, hydraulic schemes, torque wrench setting table, etc.

ATTENTION
INTRODUCTION
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 efficiency and proper utilisation, this handbook stresses these specific instructions by means of SPECIAL SYMBOLS.
CAUTION
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.
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.
PROTECT THE
ENVIRONMENT
Green: used to draw the attention to important information on environment protection.
IMPORTANT
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.
DANGER
Red: used to indicate an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
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 specific 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 traffic regulations.
IMPORTANT
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.
DANGER
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

GENERAL INFORMATION
A-4.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN
COMPONENTS
Chassis
Made of high tensile steel to improve robustness and durability, it is equipped, at the front, with two independent outriggers. A hydraulic cylinder between chassis and rear axle allows compensating side slopes up to ± 6°.
Hydrostatic transmission unit
Closed circuit hydrostatic transmission with continuous speed adjustment, mainly consisting of:
- a variable displacement pump connected to the
thermal engine by an elastic joint
- a variable displacement motor connected to the
power divider-gearbox.
- a hydraulic oil filter, placed on the injection line from
the tank
- a water/oil heat exchanger to cool the circuit down. This transmission with permanent 4 wheel drive improves the traction force, thus resulting in an increased climbing ability on slopes up to 60% at a max speed of 35 km/h.
Power divider/Two-speed gearbox
The power divider/mechanical gearbox has two speeds that can be selected by pressing the relevant button in the driving cab, a work speed and a travel speed. Speeds can only be selected when the machine stands still. From the gearbox, through two Cardan shafts, motion is transmitted to the front and rear axles fitted with differentials.
Axles
Equipped with an automatic differential lock acting on the rear axle which lets the machine move also on low grip grounds. The front axle is the steer type; the rear axle is the steer/oscillating type. When the high speed is engaged, only the front wheels are allowed to steer.
Brake circuit
The brake system is the multidisc type in oil bath, with self-adjustment, built in the front and rear axle and acting on every wheel. The pedal directly acts on the brake pump which delivers oil to the blocking cylinders through a line with a pressure accumulator.
Steering
Servo-assisted steering system with extremely reduced turning radius and three steering modes (T-WAY).
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 machine is equipped with a system controlling the longitudinal stability which enables the operator to work under absolute safety conditions. A bar with green, yellow and red LED's indicates the percentage of applied load with respect to the maximum payload of the machine. When the second red LED comes on, the machine movements are blocked, except for boom retraction, and an audible alarm starts sounding to alert to the risk.
Telescopic boom
In order to improve visibility, the boom is placed under the visual angle of the operator. Made of high tensile steel, it consists of two telescopic sections sliding on long-life pads, easily accessible for maintenance. The attachment holding plate with a 138° inclination is equipped with a hydraulic coupling system that can be operated from the driving place.
Boom hydraulic circuit
It consists of a gear pump connected to the thermal engine which, through a valve, distributes oil to the hydraulic drive and an electro-proportional main valve for the following functions:
- telescopic boom movements
- attachment rotation
- machine swaying
- attachment locking
- outrigger operation.
Driving cab
Large and comfortable cab mounted on vibration-proof supports to improve the driver's comfort. Adjustable seat with air-suspension and built-in armrest. User­friendly dashboard. Multipurpose joystick with electro­proportional control and ergonomic handle. The cab comes complete with connections for the A/C system and the CD player-radio set. Cab complies with standards ISO 3449 and EN 13510 (ROPS and FOPS).
A-4.3 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
The machine can be fitted with a wide range of optional accessories: please address to GENIE sales network.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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 modification has been done, the machine must be tagged and removed from service.
Repairs must be carried out by qualified technical personnel according to the manufacturer’s specifications. After any repair, the operator should repeat the pre-operation inspection before testing the machine functions.
Do not operate the machine, unless:
You learn and practice the principles of safe
machine operation contained in this operator’s manual. 1 Avoid hazardous situations.
Read and understand the safety rules before going on to the next chapter.
2 Always perform a pre-operation inspection.
Read and understand the safety rules before going on to the next chapter.
3 Always test the machine functions prior to use. 4 Inspect the work place. 5 Only use the machine for the intended
application.
Scheduled maintenance procedures must be performed by qualified technical personnel according to the technical specifications of the manufacturer and the requirements envisaged in the responsibilities manual.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
C-3.4 CONTROL LEVER
The handlers are equipped with a multipurpose electro­proportional lever that allows operating all machine movements.
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. Pressing buttons or , you move the boom telescopes out and in and you lock/unlock the attachment fitted to the machine.
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.
IMPORTANT
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.
DANGER
The control lever shall be operated only when correctly seated in the driving place.
DANGER
Before operating the control lever, make sure that nobody is within the working range of the machine.

The digit on display 2 shows the selected attachment. The user can choose among:
0: Generic 1: Platform
C-5.2.2 Operation
When power is turned on, light 4 comes on. The display 2 remains off and the monitoring system runs a self­test before displaying the digit corresponding to the used attachment on display 2. At this time, the system is activated.
1 2 3
4
5 6 7 8
Red LED’s: risk of overturning: the percentage of
overturning moment is above 100 with respect to the threshold value. The machine enters the alarm mode: light 10 is lit, the buzzer sounds continuously and any dangerous manoeuvre is blocked. The operator can only retract the load within safety limits.
Example of use of the overload warning system
10
9
During operation, the led-bar 3 lights up gradually depending on the variation of stability.
Green LED’s: during normal operation when the
percentage of overturning moment is between 0 and 89, these LED’s are ON. The machine is stable.
Yellow LED’s:they light up when the machine tends
to overturn and the percentage of overturning moment with respect to the threshold value is between 90 and 100. The system enters the pre-alarm mode, light 10 flashes and the buzzer sounds with an intermittent sound.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
C-5.2.3 Alarm codes and resetting
DANGER
Before using the machine, make sure that the first 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.
The limiter has diagnostic facilities to aid in the identification of failures of the transducers, breakages of the cables or defects of the electronic system. When a failure is signalled, the limiter enters the safety mode blocking any dangerous manoeuvres. Lights 5, 8 and 10 start flashing, the buzzer start sounding and an error message is shown on the display.
The meaning of the error messages is shown in Section
E “Faults and Troubleshooting”.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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 and check that the machine 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 the forks are clear of the load, set them to transfer position.
Release the parking brake and start a new working cycle.
DANGER
Do not move off when the load is raised 20÷30 cm above the ground. Risk of machine overturning or load fall.
When driving on slopes or ramps, hold the load uphill.
DANGER
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.
