Bulletin Distribution and
Compliance
Safety of product users is of paramount
importance to Genie. Various bulletins are used
by Genie to communicate important safety and
product information to dealers and machine
owners.
The information contained in the bulletins is tied to
specific machines using the machine model and
serial number.
Distribution of bulletins is based on the most
current owner on record along with their
associated dealer, so it is important to register
your machine and keep your contact information
up to date.
To ensure safety of personnel and the reliable
continued operation of your machine, be sure to
comply with the action indicated in a respective
bulletin.
To view any open bulletins for your machine, visit
us on the web at www.genielift.com.

provide protection from contact with or proximity to
electrical current.
ì Obey all local and
governmental regulations
regarding required
clearance from electrical
power lines. At a minimum,
the required clearance
contained in the chart
below must be followed.
Line Voltage Required Clearance

Allow for platform movement, electrical line sway
or sag, and beware of strong or gusty winds.
Tip-over Hazards
Occupants, equipment and materials shall not
exceed the maximum platform capacity or the
maximum platform capacity of the platform
extension.
Maximum platform capacity
Maximum occupants 2
The weight of options and accessories, such
as pipe cradles, panel cradles and welders, will
reduce the rated platform capacity and must be
subtracted from the platform capacity. See the
decals with the options and accessories.
If using accessories, read, understand and obey
the decals, instructions and manuals with the
accessory.
Do not alter or disable the limit switches.
Do not raise or extend the boom unless the
machine is on a firm, level surface.
440 lbs /

Keep away from the
machine if it contacts
energized power lines.
Personnel on the ground
or in the platform must not
touch or operate the
machine until energized
power lines are shut off.
Do not operate the machine during lightning or
storms.
Do not use the machine as a ground for welding.
14 Z®-33 Part No. 1287493GT
Do not depend on the tilt alarm as a level indicator.
The tilt alarm sounds in the platform only when the
machine is on a severe slope.
Second Edition • First Printing
Operator's Manual
Work Area Safety
If the tilt alarm sounds while the boom is lowered:
do not extend, rotate or raise the boom above
horizontal. Move the machine to a firm, level
surface before raising the platform.
If the tilt alarm sounds when the platform is raised,
use extreme caution. The Machine Not Level
indicator light will come on and the drive function
in one or both directions will not operate. Identify
the condition of the boom on the slope as shown
below. Follow the steps to lower the boom before
moving to a firm, level surface. Do not rotate the
boom while lowering.
If the tilt alarm sounds with
the platform uphill:
1 Lower the primary
boom.
2 Lower the secondary
boom.
3 Retract the primary
boom.
If the tilt alarm sounds with
the platform downhill:
1 Retract the primary
boom.
2 Lower the secondary
boom.
3 Lower the primary
boom.
Do not raise the boom when
wind speeds may exceed
28 mph/12.5 m/s. If wind
speeds exceed 28 mph/12.5
m/s when the boom is
raised, lower the boom and
do not continue to operate
the machine.
Do not operate the machine in strong or gusty
winds. Do not increase the surface area of the
platform or the load. Increasing the area exposed
to the wind will decrease machine stability.
Use extreme care and
slow speeds while driving
the machine in the stowed
position across uneven
terrain, debris, unstable or
slippery surfaces and near
holes and drop-offs.
Do not drive the machine on or near uneven
terrain, unstable surfaces or other hazardous
conditions with the boom raised or extended.
Do not use the machine as a crane.
Do not push the machine or other objects with the
boom.
Do not contact adjacent structures with the boom.

Do not tie the boom or platform to adjacent
structures.
Do not place loads outside the platform perimeter.
Do not push off or pull
toward any object outside of
the platform.
Maximum allowable
manual force
90 lbs / 400 N
Do not alter or disable machine components that
in any way affect safety and stability.
Do not replace items critical to machine stability
with items of different weight or specification.
Do not replace factory-installed tires with tires of
different specification or ply rating.
Do not use air-filled tires. These machines are
equipped with solid tires.
Wheel weight and proper counterweight
configuration are critical to stability.
Do not modify or alter an aerial work platform
without prior written permission from the
manufacturer. Mounting attachments for holding
tools or other materials onto the platform,
toeboards or guard rail system can increase the
weight in the platform and the surface area of the
platform or the load.
Do not place ladders or
scaffolds in the platform
or against any part of this
machine.
Do not transport tools and materials unless they
are evenly distributed and can be safely handled
by person(s) in the platform.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile
surface or vehicle.
Be sure all tires are in good condition and lug nuts
are properly tightened.
Do not use the platform controls to free a platform
that is caught, snagged or otherwise prevented
from normal motion by an adjacent structure. All
personnel must be removed from the platform
before attempting to free the platform using the
ground controls.
Do not use batteries that weigh less than the
original equipment. Batteries are used as
counterweight and are critical to machine stability.
Each battery must weigh a minimum of 105 lbs /
47.6 kg. Each battery box including batteries must
weigh a minimum of 530 lbs / 240.4 kg.
Do not place or attach
fixed or overhanging
loads to any part of this
machine.
