Important
Read, understand and obey the safety rules and
operating instructions in the Genie Z-45/22
Operator's Manual before attempting any
maintenance or repair procedure.
This service manual covers the Genie Z-45/22
2WD and 4WD models introduced in 1994.
This manual provides detailed scheduled
maintenance information for the machine owner
and user. It also provides troubleshooting and
repair procedures for qualified service
professionals.
Basic mechanical, hydraulic and electrical skills
are required to perform most procedures.
However, several procedures require specialized
skills, tools, lifting equipment and a suitable
workshop. In these instances, we strongly
recommend that maintenance and repair be
performed at a Genie dealer service center.
Genie Industries has endeavored to deliver the
highest degree of accuracy possible. However,
continuous improvement of our products is a
Genie policy. Therefore product specifications are
subject to change without notice.
Readers are encouraged to notify Genie of errors
and send in suggestions for improvement. All
communications will be carefully considered for
future printings of this and other manuals. Please
write to the technical publications team in care of
Genie Industries, PO Box 69, Redmond WA

SAFETY RULES

Section 1 - Safety Rules
Workplace Safety
Be sure to keep sparks, flames and
lighted tobacco away from flammable and
combustible materials like battery gases
and engine fuels. Always have an approved fire
extinguisher within easy reach.
Be sure that all tools and working areas
are properly maintained and ready for
use. Keep work surfaces clean and free
of debris that could get into machine components
and cause damage.
Be sure that your workshop or work area
is properly ventilated and well lit.
Be sure any forklift, overhead crane or
other lifting or supporting device is fully
capable of supporting and stabilizing the
weight to be lifted. Use only chains or straps that
are in good condition and of ample capacity.
Be sure that fasteners intended for one
time use (i.e., cotter pins and self-locking
nuts) are not reused. These components
may fail if they are used a second time.
Be sure to properly dispose of old oil or
other fluids. Use an approved container.
Please be environmentally safe.
Personal Safety
Any person working on or around a machine must
be aware of all known safety hazards. Personal
safety and the continued safe operation of the
machine should be your number one priority.
Read each procedure thoroughly. This
manual and the decals, on the machine,
use signal words to identify the following:
Indicates the presence of
a hazard that will cause
death or serious injury.
Indicates the presence of
a hazard that may cause
death or serious injury.
Indicates the presence of
a hazard that will or may
cause serious injury or
damage to the machine.
Indicates special
operation or maintenance
information.
Be sure to wear protective eye wear and
other protective clothing if the situation
warrants it.
Be aware of potential crushing hazards
such as moving parts, free swinging or
unsecured components, and lifting or
placing loads. Always wear approved steel-toed
shoes.
