Transport and Lifting Instructions

Observe and Obey:
Genie Industries provides this securement
information as a recommendation. Drivers are
solely responsible for making sure machines
are properly secured and the correct trailer is
selected pursuant to US Department of
Transportation regulations, other localized
regulations, and their company policy.
Genie customers needing to containerize any lift
or Genie product should source a qualified
freight forwarder with expertise in preparing,
loading and securing construction and lifting
equipment for international shipment.
Only qualified aerial lift operators should move
the machine on or off the truck.
The transport vehicle must be parked on a level
surface.
The transport vehicle must be secured to
prevent rolling while the machine is being
loaded.
Be sure the vehicle capacity, loading surfaces
and chains or straps are sufficient to withstand
the machine weight. Genie lifts are very heavy
relative to their size. See the serial label for the
machine weight. See the Inspections section for
the serial label location.
Be sure the turntable is secured with the
turntable rotation lock before transporting. Be
sure to unlock the turntable for operation.
42
Do not drive the machine on a slope that
exceeds the uphill, downhill or side slope rating.
See Driving on a Slope in the Operating
Instructions section.
If the slope of the transport vehicle bed exceeds
the uphill or downhill maximum slope rating, the
machine must be loaded and unloaded using a
winch as described. See the Specifications
section for the slope ratings.
Free-wheel Configuration for
Winching
Chock the wheels to prevent the machine from
rolling.
2WD models: Release
the non-steer wheel
brakes by turning over
the drive hub
disconnect caps.
4WD models: Release

Be sure the winch line is properly secured to the
drive chassis tie points and the path is clear of all
obstructions.
Reverse the procedures described to re-engage the
brakes.
Note: The pump free-wheel valve should always
remain closed.
