Q-36
Inspect and Adjust the Boom
Extend/Retract Cables - All
Models
Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed quarterly for the first year of ownership
or after the boom extend or retract cables have
been replaced.
After the first year this quarterly inspection is not
required. Refer to the Annual Inspection procedure
appropriate for your machine.
Manufacturers specifications require that this
procedure be performed by personnel that are
competent in cable / wire rope inspection.
Note: Additional or more frequent
inspections may be required due to the
following:
•
exposed to hostile or corrosive
environmental conditions.
•
boom is overloaded
•
sustains a shock load
•
electrical arcing
•
unused for extended periods
The boom extend/retract cables are responsible for
the extension and retraction of the boom tubes.
Inspecting for foreign objects, damage and/or
improper adjustment of the boom extend/retract
cables and related components on a regular basis
is essential to good machine performance and safe
machine operation. The boom extend and retract
functions should operate smoothly and be free of
hesitation, jerking and unusual noise.
