Test the Fuel Select Operation -
Ford Models
Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed every 250 hours or quarterly, whichever
comes first.
The ability to select and switch between
gasoline and LPG fuels as needed is essential to
safe machine operation. A fuel selection can be
made when the engine is running or not.
Switching malfunctions and/or the failure of the
engine to start and run properly in both fuel
modes and through all idle speeds can indicate fuel
system problems that could develop into a
hazardous situation.
Note: Perform this test after checking the gasoline
and LPG fuel levels, and warming the engine to
normal operating temperature.
1 At the platform controls, move the fuel select
switch to gasoline and then move the engine
idle control switch to foot switch activated high
idle (rabbit and foot switch symbol).
2 Start the engine from the platform controls and
allow it to run at low idle.
3 Press down the foot switch to allow the engine
to run at high idle.
Result: The engine should start promptly and
operate smoothly in low and high idle.
4 Release the foot switch and shut the engine off
by pushing in the red Emergency Stop button in
to the off position.
5 Move the fuel select switch to LPG.
6 Restart the engine and allow it to run at
low idle.
7 Press down the foot switch to allow the engine
to run at high idle.
Result: The engine should start promptly and
operate smoothly in low and high idle.
Note: The engine may hesitate momentarily and
then continue to run on the selected fuel if the fuel
source is switched while the engine is running.
