fied, you must understand the instructions in this manual, have training, and know the safety rules
and regulations of the job site.
Do not alter the physical or mechanical operation of the attachment. Doing so may cause a dan-
gerous situation for yourself and those around you and will void the warranty.
Do not attempt repairs you do not understand. If any questions arise regarding a safety or mainte-
nance procedure, contact Genesis or your Genesis dealer.
Read this entire manual. All personnel must understand the maintenance and safety procedures.
Use factory authorized parts. The use of unauthorized parts may compromise safety, performance
and durability of the attachment and may void the warranty.
Follow the daily checklist and maintenance schedules in this manual. Extreme conditions may
dictate shorter maintenance intervals.
Do not exceed bolt torque specifications. See the Genesis Fastener Manual.
Do not weld on structural components without consulting Genesis. Doing so may cause structural
failure and void the warranty.
Do not work on the attachment before ensuring it will not move. Completely lower the boom to the

parts immediately.

ately shut down the equipment and report the situation to the proper authority.
