Hi, my name is Anthony, I work with Bill's Equipment Supply and I'm going to show you the operations of our Genie 34/20 electric tow boom. This is a refer to the operator's manual and safety book inside the compartment and we will also when you rent this machine go over operation instructions with you. So, the first thing you want to do is after you get this to your house, or your residence, before you unhook from your truck, is set your parking brake.
From there, you can start unchaining the boom from your truck. Chains off, bring these up off the ground so they're not in the way. Then you pull your collar pin out. Slide the collar back and it releases the hitch from the tongue of the ball. From there you want to put your leg jack down. Lock it back into place. And start cranking down and raise the boom off the hitch of your truck.
Now you're gonna pull your emergency stop out make sure it's out. Turn your key to the right to your ground control functions. Your blue and yellow are the operations of the up and down of the machine. The solid black one here is for the self-levelers of your four outriggers. That's the only thing it will be used for. You will press the black one and the yellow one at the same time and all four of the outrigger arms will come down simultaneously.
And once these outrigger arms touch the ground, the indicator lights will light up saying that the outriggers have contact with the ground. You keep pressing, holding this button in this machine will jockey itself to level itself out. The steady tone you hear means the machine is leveled. Now I'm going to show you guys how to put on a harness...
