Safety Bulletin: Genie Z-80 Boom Lift Incorrect Labeling of Maximum Wheel Load

Genie alertIf you own or operate a Genie Z-80 Boom Lift, especially a model within the following range of serial numbers  – Z80-101 to Z8009-2448 – contact your Genie dealer for more information.

Genie Industries has determined that the above referenced machines were produced with the wrong floor loading information in the operator’s manual and on the decals. This information indicates that the maximum wheel load is less than the actual maximum wheel load. Incorrect floor loading information may result in the user operating the machine on a surface that is not capable of supporting the maximum wheel load.

If you are the owner or operator of an affected machine and are not an authorized Genie dealer, please contact your nearest Genie dealer for assistance.

Genie and ANSI requires that the seller of a Genie machine report to Genie the model and serial number of each machine sold, as well as the name, address, and telephone number of the new owner, within 60 days of the sale. OSHA and ANSI also require that the manufacturer’s campaign bulletins be completed. It is your responsibility to communicate this important information to all machine owners and applicable branches. If you have any questions, please contact Genie’s service department at:
