Check the Safety Envelope Limit
Switches and Angle Sensor,

Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 500 hours or six months,
whichever comes first.
Testing the safety envelope system regularly is
essential to safe machine operation. Continued use
of an improperly operating safety envelope could
result in the system not restricting the range of
motion. Machine stablity could be compromised
resulting in the machine tipping over.

a firm, level surface with all weight, tools and
equipment removed from the platform.

retracted and in the stowed position.
