The problem

On certain trailer mounted aerial work platform booms, the hold down bracket that secures the mast/upper structure for transport may become damaged or loose over time.

The risk

This could result in upper structure movement and could contribute to the trailer becoming unstable when rounding a corner, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Genie will provide a mast cradle replacement kit to owners of all affected machines free of charge. The recall began on april 5, 2007. Owners may contact genie at 866-927-7269.
