Stowed Position
Genie requires that this procedure be performed
every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever comes
first.
Proper drive function movement is essential to safe
machine operation. The drive function should
respond quickly and smoothly to operator control.
Drive performance should also be free of
hesitation, jerking and unusual noise over the
entire proportionally controlled speed range.

on the ground 40 feet / 12.2 m apart.

out the red Emergency Stop button to the on
position at both the ground and platform
controls.

patch of a tire, as a visual reference for use
when crossing the start and finish lines.
