Do not sit, stand or climb on the platform guard rails. Maintain a firm footing on the platform floor at all times.
Do not climb down from the platform when raised.
Keep the platform floor clear of debris.
Lower the platform entry mid-rail or close the entry gate before operating.
Be aware of limited sight distance and blind spots when driving.
Be aware of secondary boom position when rotating turntable.
Check work area for overhead obstructions or other possible hazards.
Be aware of crushing hazard when grasping the platform guard rail.
Observe and use color-coded direction arrows on the platform controls and drive chassis for drive and steer functions.
Do not lower the boom unless the area below is clear of personnel and obstructions.
Limit travel speed according to condition of ground surface, congestion, slope, location of personnel, and any other factors which may cause collision.
Do not use any battery or charger greater than 12V to jump start the engine.
Do not use machine as a ground for welding.
Be sure hydraulic shutoff valves (located by hydraulic tank) are open before starting engine.
Do not start engine if you smell or detect liquid petroleum gas (LPG), gasoline, diesel fuel or other explosive substances.
Do not refuel machine with engine running.
Refuel machine and charge battery only in an open, well-ventilated area away from sparks, flames and lighted tobacco.
Always operate machine in a well-ventilated area to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
Do not use a damaged or malfunctioning machine.
Conduct a thorough pre-operation inspection of the machine and test all functions before each work shift. Immediately tag and remove from service a damaged or malfunctioning machine.
Be sure all maintenance has been performed as specified in this manual and the Genie Z-60/34 Service Manual.
Be sure all decals are in place and legible.
Be sure safety and operator's manuals are legible and in the storage box located on the platform.
Genie product decals use color coding and signal words to identify the following:
Red—used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause death or serious injury.
Orange—used to indicate the presence of a hazard that may cause death or serious injury.
ACAUTION
Yellow—used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or may cause serious personal injury or damage to the machine.
NOTICE
Green—used to indicate operation or maintenance information.
Be sure that all decals are legible and in place.
Be sure that operator's and safety manuals are legible and in the storage box located on the platform.
Check the engine oil, hydraulic oil, coolant and fuel levels.
Check for damage and improperly installed or missing parts:
Perform quarterly (or every 150 hours) and annual machine inspections. Keep records for three years. See Genie Z-60/34 Service Manual for details.
1 Select a test area that is firm, level and free of obstruction.
Note: To conserve battery power, test each function through a partial cycle.
• Result: All boom functions should operate.
Note: Oscillating axle equipped machines only. From the stowed position, auxiliary power can not raise the primary boom above the lift interlock limit switch. Auxiliary power can raise the primary boom if already raised above the lift interlock limit switch.
15 Raise the primary boom to just above horizontal.
• Result: The oscillation lock-out wedges should fully extend.
16 Lower primary boom to fully stowed position.
Figure 1
35 Press down the foot switch.
Note: The drive brakes must be able to hold the machine on any slope it is able to climb.
figure 2
40 Move the drive control handle off center.
• Result: The drive function should operate.
Note: When the drive enable system is in use, the machine may drive in the opposite direction that the drive and steer control handle is moved.
Use the color-coded direction arrows on the platform controls and the drive chassis to identify the direction of travel.
If the drive speed with the boom raised or extended exceeds 1 foot per second (0.3 meters per second), immediately tag and remove the machine from service.
52 Simultaneously hold auxiliary power switch on and activate each function control handle or toggle switch.
Note: To conserve battery power, test each function through a partial cycle.
If engine fails to start after 15 seconds of cranking, determine cause and repair any malfunction. Wait 60 seconds before trying to start again.
All models: In extreme cold conditions, 20°F (-6°C) and below, warm engine for 5 minutes to prevent hydraulic system damage.
Push in either ground or platform red Emergency Stop button to the OFF position to stop all functions and turn engine off.
Repair any function that operates when Emergency Stop button is pushed in.
Selecting and operating ground controls will override platform Emergency Stop button.
Use auxiliary power only if primary power source (engine) fails.
The drive function will not operate with auxiliary power.
1 Move appropriate toggle switch according to markings on control panel.
Drive and steer functions are not available from ground controls.
Use color-coded direction arrows on platform controls and drive chassis to identify direction wheels will turn.
Decrease speed: Slowly move drive control handle toward center.
Stop: Return drive control handle to center or release foot switch.
Use color-coded direction arrows on platform controls and drive chassis to identify direction machine will travel.
Machine travel speed is restricted when boom is raised or extended or turntable is rotated.
Light ON indicates that primary boom has moved just past either non-steering wheel and drive function has been interrupted.
To drive, hold drive enable switch to either side and slowly move drive control handle off center.
Be aware that machine may move in opposite direction that drive and steer controls are moved.
Always use color-coded direction arrows on platform controls and drive chassis to identify direction machine will travel.
Four-wheel symbol: low range operation for rough terrain and inclines.
Two-wheel symbol: high range operation for maximum drive speed.
Select engine idle (rpm) using symbols on control panel.
Oscillating axle will lock out automatically when the boom is raised, extended or turntable is rotated.
Push in red Emergency Stop button and turn key switch to the OFF position.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Always use the turntable rotation lock each time the machine is transported.
Always chock machine wheels in preparation for transport.
Use tie points on drive chassis for anchoring down to transport surface.
Use lower platform mount between boom end and platform to secure boom from side-to-side movement. Do not use excessive downward force when securing boom section.
Use chains or straps of ample load capacity.
Turn key switch to the OFF position and remove key before transporting.
Inspect entire machine for loose or unsecured items.
Chock wheels to prevent machine from rolling.
Release non-steer wheel brakes by turning over torque hub disconnect caps (detail 1).
4WD model: Open pump free-wheel valve by turning counterclockwise two turns (detail 2).
Be sure winch line is properly secured to drive chassis tie points and path is clear of all obstruction.
Reverse procedures described for details 1 and 2 to re-engage brakes.
Note: Towing of the Genie Z-60/34 is not recommended. If machine must be towed, do not exceed 2 mph (3.2km/h).
2WD models: The pump free-wheel valve should always remain closed.
