Up Limit Switch (if equipped)
Genie requires that this procedure be performed
every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever comes
first.
Maintaining the limit switches is essential to safe
operation and good machine performance.

could result in reduced machine performance and
a potentially unsafe operating condition.
Perform these procedures with the machine on a
firm, level surface that is free of obstructions.
