Transport and Lifting Instructions
Observe and Obey:
Genie Industries provides this securement information as a recommendation. Drivers are solely responsible for making sure machines are properly secured and the correct trailer is selected pursuant to US Department of Transportation regulations, other localized regulations, and their company policy.
Genie customers needing to containerize any lift or Genie product should source a qualified freight forwarder with expertise in preparing, loading and securing construction and lifting equipment for international shipment.
Only qualified aerial lift operators should move the machine on or off the truck.
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 the machine weight. Genie lifts are very heavy relative to their size. See the serial label for the machine weight. See the Inspections section for the serial label location.
Be sure the turntable is secured with the turntable rotation lock before transporting. Be sure to unlock the turntable for operation.
Do not drive the machine on a slope that exceeds the uphill, downhill or side slope rating. See Driving on a Slope in the Operating Instructions section.
If the slope of the transport vehicle bed exceeds the uphill or downhill maximum slope rating, the machine must be loaded and unloaded using a winch as described. See the Specifications section for the slope ratings.
