Genie specifications require that this procedure be
performed annually.
Failure to maintain proper drive hub oil levels may
cause the machine to perform poorly and continued
use may cause component damage.
Models with tires:
1 Drive the machine to rotate the hub until the
plugs are located one on top and the other at
90 degrees.

2 Remove the plug located at 90 degrees and
check the oil level.
Result: The oil level should be even with the
bottom of the plug hole.
3 If necessary, remove the top plug and add oil
until the oil level is even with the bottom of the
side plug hole.
4 Install the plug(s) into the drive hub.
5 Check the torque of the drive hub mounting
bolts. Refer to Specifications, Machine Torque
Specifications.
6 Repeat this procedure for each drive hub.

enough to access the remaining fasteners. Do
