Checklist D Procedures

D-1
Replace the Hydraulic Return
Filter
Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 1000 hours or annually,
whichever comes first.
Replacement of the hydraulic tank return filter is
essential for good machine performance and
service life. A dirty or clogged filter may cause the
machine to perform poorly and continued use may
cause component damage. Extremely dirty
conditions may require that the filter be replaced
more often.
Beware of hot oil. Contact with
hot oil may cause severe burns.
Note: The hydraulic tank return filter is mounted
next to the hydraulic tank.
1 Clean the area around the return filter.
2 Remove the filter element from the housing.
3 Apply a thin layer of fresh oil to the gasket of
the new oil filter.
4 Install the new filter element and hand tighten
the housing onto the filter head.
5 Use a permanent ink marker to write the date
and number of hours from the hour meter on
the oil filter.
6 Raise the platform to approximately 3 ft / 1 m.
7 Inspect the filter for leaks.
8 Clean up and properly dispose of any oil that
may have spilled during the installation
procedure.
