Transport Instructions

Observe and Obey:

The transport vehicle must be parked on a level surface.

The transport vehicle must be secured to prevent rolling while the machine is being loaded.

Be sure the vehicle capacity, loading surfaces and chains or straps are sufficient to withstand machine weight. See the serial plate for the machine weight.

Be sure the turntable is secured with the turntable rotation lock before transporting. Be sure to unlock the turntable for operation.

Securing to Truck or Trailer for Transit

Always chock the machine wheels in preparation for transport.

Use the tie points on the drive chassis for anchoring down to the transport surface.

Use the rotator guard under the platform to secure the boom from side-to-side movement. Do not use excessive downward force when securing the boom section.

Use chains or straps of ample load capacity.

Turn the key switch to the off position and remove the key before transporting.

Inspect the entire machine for loose or unsecured items.

Free-wheel Configuration for Winching

Chock the wheels to prevent the machine from rolling.

Release the non-steer wheel brakes by turning over the drive hub disconnect caps (see below).

Be sure the winch line is properly secured to the drive chassis tie points and the path is clear of all obstructions.

Reverse the procedures described to re-engage the brakes.

Note: Towing the Genie Z-45/25 or the Z-45/25J is not recommended. If the machine must be towed, do not exceed 2 mph / 3.2 km/h.

Z-45/25J, Z-45/25 specifications

The Genie Z-45/25 and Z-45/25J are cutting-edge articulating boom lifts designed for versatility, efficiency, and performance in various applications. These machines are essential for reaching elevated work sites, providing operators with the ability to access hard-to-reach areas while ensuring safety and stability.

One of the standout features of the Genie Z-45/25 is its impressive working height, reaching up to 51 feet (15.7 meters), along with a horizontal reach of 25 feet (7.6 meters). The Z-45/25J variant offers similar height capabilities while introducing a new level of flexibility with its J-style arm design, allowing for enhanced maneuverability in tight spaces. This is particularly useful in urban environments or areas with overhead obstacles, where traditional lifts may struggle to maximize their reach.

Both models are equipped with a powerful diesel engine that provides the necessary torque and power for outdoor applications, making them ideal for construction sites, maintenance jobs, and other demanding tasks. The reliable engine is complemented by a hydraulic system that delivers smooth operation and responsive control, ensuring that operators can maneuver the boom with precision.

Safety is a paramount concern in aerial lift design, and the Genie Z-45/25 and Z-45/25J exceed industry standards. They feature intuitive operator controls, built-in safety features such as automatic platform leveling, and an anti-bounce system that helps prevent sudden, unexpected movements. Additionally, these models provide operators with a spacious platform that can safely accommodate multiple workers along with their tools and equipment.

The Genie Z-45/25 and Z-45/25J also incorporate advanced technologies, such as the Genie Smart Link system, which enhances communication between the machine and the operator, providing real-time updates on machine status and maintenance needs. This feature contributes to increased uptime and reduced operating costs.

With robust construction and high-quality materials, these boom lifts are designed to withstand harsh environments, ensuring long-term durability and reliability. Their compact size and 4-wheel drive capability allow for easy transport and maneuvering on rough terrain, making them ideal for a variety of job sites.

In summary, the Genie Z-45/25 and Z-45/25J articulating boom lifts represent a blend of advanced technology, high safety standards, and exceptional performance. They are engineered to meet the diverse needs of operators while providing access to challenging work areas, thus ensuring that projects can be completed safely and efficiently.
