SAFETY RULES
Fall Hazards
Do not use as a personnel lifting platform or step.
Do not stand on the forks.
Do not climb on the mast.
Tip-over Hazards
Do not operate a Genie Super Tower unless all four
outriggers are properly installed in the base
sockets, the screw jack pads are in firm contact
with the ground and the base is level.
Do not operate the machine unless all outrigger
lock pins are in place and properly inserted into
each outrigger.
Do not raise the load unless the machine is level.
Do not set the machine up on a surface where it
cannot be leveled using only the leveling jacks.
Do not move the machine
with a raised load, except
for minor positioning.
Do not leave the load
raised with the outrigger
casters contacting the
ground.
Do not adjust or remove
the outriggers while the
load is raised.
2
Do not operate the machine in strong or gusty
winds. Increasing the load surface area will
decrease machine stability in windy conditions.
Do not leave a load raised when windy conditions
may occur unless the machine(s) are properly
guy-wired.
Do not use the machine on a moving or mobile
surface or vehicle.
Do not place ladders or scaffolding against any part
of the machine.
Do not exceed the rated load capacity. See Load
Capacity Charts section.
Do not raise unless the load center (balance point)
is properly positioned between the carriage and the
end of the load handling attachment. See Load
Capacity Charts section.
Prior to use, check the work area for drop-offs,
holes, bumps, debris, unstable or slippery surfaces
or other possible hazardous conditions.
