Inspect the Channels

Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 8 hours or daily, whichever comes
first.
Detection of damage to the inner and outer frame
channels is essential for safe machine operation.
An unsafe working condition exists if the channels
are damaged and do not operate smoothly, free of
hesitation and binding. A daily check of the
channels allows the inspector to identify changes in
the operating condition of the unit that might
indicate damage.
1 Visually inspect each channel for the
following:
• Dents, gauges or abrasions
• Bends or warping
• Excessive wear
2 Raise and lower the carriage through a
complete cycle.
Result: The carriage and inner frame (if
equipped) should raise and lower smoothly,
free of hesitation and binding.
