Danger
Failure to comply with the followingrequirements will result in death orserious injury.
Modification of the Approved Modelsfor use by attachment of lights, lightmounting hardware, camera mountinghardware and light diffusion frames(LDFs) to the platform guard rail isauthorized by Genie Industries only ifthe following rules and requirementsare strictly followed:
• Operators must have completed training for theattachment of lighting or camera equipment andLDFs to the platform guard rail. Training mustinclude, but not be limited to, informationregarding the effect on platform capacity andstability resulting from the attachment ofequipment to the platform guard rail or to theboom of the aerial lift, and hazards associatedwith this application.
• All operating instructions and warningscontained in the Operator’s Manual, SafetyManual and Manual of Responsibilities, and ondecals found on the particular Genie aerial lift,must be followed.
• The aerial lift must be operated only on a firm,level surface.
• Operators must be trained and be able todemonstrate proficiency in the operation of thespecific model of Genie aerial lift beingoperated.
• Genie booms are not insulated. Precautionsshall be taken to protect the operator and peopleon the ground from electrocution hazards. Theattachment of power supply cables to the boomshall not restrict the movement of the aerial liftor endanger the operator or people on theground.
• Attachment of power supply cables to the boomshall be accomplished in a manner that doesnot cause a tip-over hazard due to a side orvertical force that could result in the machinebecoming unstable.
• Power supply cables must be attached to theend of each boom section in a manner thatensures the cable cannot be damaged fromtensioning, pinching or crushing when the boomis operated.
• LDFs hung from the platform guard rail must notbe rigidly attached in any manner that couldcause or impose a side or vertical load fromwind or contact with adjacent objects greaterthan the rated side load posted at the entranceto the platform.
• Attachment of LDFs and rope to the platformshall be accomplished in a manner that doesnot cause a tip-over hazard due to a side orvertical force that could result in the machinebecoming unstable.
• Do not alter the guard rail system by drilling,welding, crushing, damaging or making anyother modifications that compromise thestrength of the guard rail when attaching movieproduction equipment.
• The entrance to the platform, the platformcontrols, including the foot switch and theemergency stop button, the lanyard anchoragepoints, the platform decals and instructioncontainer must remain accessible when movieproduction equipment is attached to theplatform.
• Operators must not gain access to or exit theplatform by means of walking or climbing on theboom or lift structure or by attaching a rope or ahanging ladder from the platform or itssupporting structure. Access to and exit fromthe platform shall be accomplished at groundlevel only.
• The combined weight of platform attachments,power supply cables, mounting hardware,platform occupant(s), tools and equipment mustin all cases remain less than the maximumrated platform capacity. Use the platformcapacity reduction chart found in thissupplement to determine allowable platformload.
• The number and size of attachments must belimited by consideration of the maximumallowable wind speed and the surface area ofplatform attachments. Use the wind speed chartfound in this supplement to determine maximumallowable wind speed.
• Information regarding the attachment of LDFsand lighting and camera equipment shall besupplied only to trained union members.Operators must be familiar with thesesupplemental instructions and warnings beforethey are allowed to operate any Genie boomthat is approved for this application.

Tip Over HazardUsing a boom in wind speeds greater thanrecommended or exceeding the recommendedsurface area of the platform by attaching movieproduction equipment will result in the boombecoming unstable and will result in death orserious injury.
When movie production equipment, such as lightdiffusion frames or set lighting, is attached to aboom platform, operation in windy conditions islimited by the frame size (or total surface area ofthe equipment) and wind speed as follows:
For Determining the ReductionIn Platform Capacity Due ToAttachment Of Movie ProductionEquipment To Genie BoomPlatforms with Operator(s) in thePlatform
Platform Capacity Reduction Chart
Reduce platform capacity according to thefollowing:
• Attachment of power supply cables to theboom reduces the platform capacity. Subtractthe total suspended weight of cables andrigging from the rated platform capacity.
• Subtract the load applied to the platform bythe attachment of additional movie productionequipment (as shown in Illustration 1) by usingthe procedure and chart on the followingpages.
S-40, S-60, S-60HC, S-80, S-100, Z-34/22 IC,Z-45/25J and Z-60/34:
• With operator(s) in the platform, no additionalload above rated platform capacity is allowed.
• When used as a material lift only, the payload(with adjustment per Platform CapacityReduction Chart) must not exceed the loadshown in the attached load rating range-of-motion charts.
S-45, S-65, S-85, S-105, S-120 and S-125:
• No additional load above rated platformcapacity is allowed. Personnel and payload(with adjustment per Platform CapacityReduction Chart) must not exceed the loadshown in the appropriate Operator'sManual and Decals for your machine.

Tip Over HazardExceeding the recommended load restrictionsof the platform by attaching movie productionequipment will result in the boom becomingunstable and will result in death or seriousinjury. Always calculate the reduction of theplatform capacity caused by attachment of moreproduction equipment.
Theory:Platform maximum capacity is based on an evenlydistributed load. When movie production equipment,such as light diffusion frames, set lighting andcamera mounts, are attached to the front of theplatform (entry side), the platform capacity isreduced by more than the weight of the equipment.The farther the equipment is mounted from thecenter of the platform, the greater the reduction inplatform capacity.
Definition:Center of Gravity (C.G.): The balance point of anobject. The point at which the entire weight of anobject is concentrated so that if the object issuspended from that point, it will be balanced.

How to use this chart
Note: The numbers in the shaded area on the chartare to be used for material lifting applications only.No personnel shall be in the platform if the ratedplatform capacity is exceeded.
Follow these steps for each piece of equipmentattached to the platform.
1 Locate the weight of your equipment in the firstcolumn on the chart. Always round up to thenext number.
2 Measure the distance from the back toeboard tothe center of gravity of the equipment (distanceA or distance B). This is the load center.Refer to Illustration 1.
PLATFORM CAPACITY REDUCTION CHART
3 From these numbers, determine the total load ofyour equipment on the platform.
Personnel lifting applications: Subtract thisnumber from the maximum platform capacity ofthe machine, as defined in the appropriatemachine operator's manual and decals, todetermine the remaining platform capacity.
Material lifting applications: Subtract thisnumber from the maximum platform capacitiescalled out on the range-of-motion charts on thefollowing pages.
S-45, S-65, S-85, S-105, S-120 and S-125:Refer to the appropriate Operator's Manual anddecals on your machine for maximum platformcapacity. These models are not approved formaterial lifting applications where rated platformcapacity is exceeded.
Example: Lighting equipment and the mountingbracket used to attach it to the guard rail weigh 167pounds. Their center of gravity (balance point) islocated at 35 inches from the back toeboard.Because the load is concentrated at the front guardrail, its effect on capacity is greater than adistributed load. The chart tells us that thereduction in capacity is 241 lbs. On a platform witha 500 lb capacity, the remaining capacity is 259 lbs(500-241=259).
