Inspect the Tires, Wheels and
Lug Bolt Torque
Genie requires that this procedure be performed
every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever comes
first.
Maintaining the tires and wheels in good
condition is essential to safe operation and good
performance. Tire and/or wheel failure could result
in a machine tip-over. Component damage may
also result if problems are not discovered and
repaired in a timely fashion.
1 Check the tire tread and sidewalls for cuts,
cracks, punctures and unusual wear.
2 Check each wheel for damage, bends and
cracked welds.
3 Remove the castle nut lock plate or cotter pin
and check each castle nut for proper torque.
Refer to Section 2, Specifications .
Note: Always replace the cotter pin with a new one
when removing the castle nut or checking the
torque of the castle nut.
4 Check each lug bolt for proper torque.
5 Install the castle nut lock plate using a new lock
washer OR install a new cotter pin and secure.
