![]() My machine was engine powered-your unit-battery operated actually increases component complexity by So yesterday i spent parting out 60 ft jlg z articulated boom lift-lift mechanism similar to genie z-45 The lift moves and steers OK, it takes a while to stop, the manual says 5~6 feet is OK that seems kind of odd?Īnyone have experience with these boom lifts? It seems straight forward enough but there are always nuances or quirks with things that would be nice to know. The leveling issue is more of a head scratcher. I watched a video on this it looks very interesting. This has a helical inner cylinder rod that is rotated by a helical piston. The other basket failure is the rotation cylinder, leaking fluid from top and no movement under power, I can move the basket by hand from side to side. There is a master/slave system that is supposed to work in tandem with the boom that raises/lowers on a pivot. It will flop over if it is not over center. I have to crack the bleeder to raise the basket with a comealong. The auto level is not working and the panel mounted trim switch only lower the basket is either direction of operation. The basket is the other area with several issues. This has a counter balance that may be bad or the pressure may be low, I have a fitting on order for the test port. I would fall as soon as the pump stopped. ![]() I used the forklift to "help it" yesterday and when the forklift unloaded the lift would stay in position IF I kept the pump running. The secondary is a pantograph type lift with two cylinders, it only raise a few inches on it's own and won't stay up. ![]() The basket/platform was laid over when it came, I had to lift the secondary to get it off the trailer. ![]() I added water and got the batteries up where they are holding a charge and operating most of the controls. The thing sat at a Cat house for maybe 6~8 years? Anyway the batteries were dry and the guy that brought said the platform was dead. I bought a 1995 Genie Z-45-22 DC boom lift that was DOA, I knew it going in. This isn't material handling but it is a tool for rigging and equipment access. ![]()
