Section 3 • Scheduled Maintenance Procedures
Checklist C Procedures
C-1
Grease the Platform Overload
Mechanism (if equipped)
Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 500 hours or 6 months,
whichever comes first. Perform this procedure
more often if dusty conditions exist.
Application of lubrication to the platform overload
mechanism is essential to safe machine operation.
Continued use of an improperly greased platform
overload mechanism could result in the system not
sensing an overloaded platform condition and will
result in component damage.
1 Locate the grease fittings on each pivot pin of
the platform overload assembly.
2 Thoroughly pump grease into each grease
fitting using a multi-purpose grease.

C-2
Replace the
Hydraulic Tank Breather Cap -
Models with Optional Hydraulic Oil
Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 500 hours or six months,
whichever comes first OR when the machine fails
to lift the maximum rated load.
The hydraulic tank is a vented-type tank. The
breather cap has an internal air filter that can
become clogged or, over time, can deteriorate. If
the breather cap is faulty or improperly installed,
impurities can enter the hydraulic system which
may cause component damage. Extremely dirty
conditions may require that the cap be inspected
more often.
1 Remove and discard the hydraulic tank
breather cap.
2 Install and new cap onto the tank.
