Test the Emergency Stop

Genie requires that this procedure be performed
every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever comes
first.
A properly functioning Emergency Stop is essential
for safe machine operation. An improperly
operating red Emergency Stop button will fail to
shut off power and stop all machine functions,
resulting in a hazardous situation.
As a safety feature, selecting and operating the
ground controls will override the platform controls,
except the platform red Emergency Stop button.
1 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.
2 Push in the red Emergency Stop button at the
ground controls to the off position.
Result: No machine functions should operate.
3 - 14
3 Turn the key switch to platform control and pull
out the red Emergency Stop button to the on
position at both the ground and platform
controls.
4 Push down the red Emergency Stop button at
the platform controls to the off position.
Result: No machine functions should operate.
Note: The red Emergency Stop button at the
ground controls will stop all machine operation,
even if the key switch is switched to platform
control.
Note: If in ground controls mode and the red
Emergency Stop button at the platform controls is
pushed in, the ground controls LCD will display,
Platform EStop Depressed. The machine alarm will
sound at 1 beep per second.
