Adjust the Sequencing Cables

Genie requires that this procedure be performed
every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever comes
first.
Maintaining proper adjustment of the sequencing
cables is essential for safe machine operation. An
unsafe working condition exists if the sequencing
cables are improperly adjusted. A daily check of
the sequencing cables allows the inspector to
identify changes in the operating condition that
might indicate damage.
To serial number 3899-11843
1 Fully lower the platform.
2 Check the deflection on each sequencing
cable by grasping the cable halfway down the
column and pulling the cable to one side then
the other. Measure the total distance between
the two points (this is the maximum deflection)

Hold the threaded swage end of the cable
from turning and adjust the tension nut to
obtain correct deflection. Turn the adjustment
nut clockwise to decrease the deflection or
counterclockwise to increase the deflection.
Component damage hazard. Do
not exceed the recommended
deflection.
Raise and lower the platform through three
complete cycles and confirm deflection.
Repeat adjustment for each cable as required.
Fully lower the platform.
Check for proper deflection of each
sequencing cable by inspecting the spring
compression. The spring is located between
the nylock nut and the upper sequencing
bracket.
