Test the Oscillate Axle

Note: Genie specifications require that this
procedure be performed daily or every 8 hours,
whichever comes first.
Proper axle oscillation is essential to safe machine
operation. If the axle oscillation system is not
operating correctly, the stability of the machine is
compromised and it may tip over.

high ramp.

firm contact with the ground.
3 Drive the right steer tire up onto a 4 in / 10 cm
high ramp.

limit switches and hydraulic hoses.
