Great video. I am curious what the two push/pull knobs do at the back? (under the aux power cord) I am guessing Hydraulic related because of the block they go into 🤷♂
Thanks for watching our video. If I am understanding you correctly, the 2 knobs you are referring to, (one is round and red and the other right next to it is smaller and black and both are located under the ladder.) are used for releasing the brakes for transport in the event the machine becomes inoperable and needs to be loaded for service by a qualified technician. Please refer to the operator's manual specific to your Genie GS1930 located in the weather resistant compartment on the platform. You will find the information you are looking for under "Transport and Lifting Instructions" then look under the heading "Break Release Operation". As always we need to make sure everyone understands that OSHA requires that only properly trained and authorized people operate an aerial lift.
I guess you can drive it on flat hard surfaces, not on a rough terrain. Plus I don't see any stabilizers to level it if the surface is not perfectly horizontal.
Thanks for taking the time to watch our video. The red knob below and to the left of the emergency down valve handle is a manual brake release pump. It works in combination with the black knob to the right of the red brake pump knob. If the lift is inoperable and needs to be in free wheeling mode in order to push it or winch it onto a trailer, the brakes which are continuously applied until the drive function joystick located on the platform releases them, need to be disengaged. To do this, pump the red knob till the brakes release and push in the black knob to the right to hold them in free wheeling mode. Be sure to read your operator's manual to become familiar with the specific aerial lift you are required to operate.
Mine had bad brushes. Infinity resistance on motor. Brush worn very short, opened the circuit. Now I replaced the brushes, the motor runs but I cant get the lift to run the motor. I want to test the solid state controller that operates the motor. I have 24.5 volts at this controller and it should ground the motor to make it run. Two small terminals are 1 and 3. I dont want to apply voltage across them because I am afraid that wrong polarity could damage the controller. My display reads "READY GS 1930 385.5 Hours." Any suggestions?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we can not offer advice regarding specific repairs. OSHA mandates that "Repairs to the MEWP may only be made by a qualified service technician according to the manufacturers specifications." We highly recommend that you contact your nearest authorized Genie dealer to facilitate this repair.
Thanks for this video, it was very helpful. I know the lift has a continuous loud beeping sound when operating it for safety reasons but is there a way to lower the sound or temporarily turn it off/on.
Thanks for watching our channel! We're happy you found the information included helpful. Yours is a very good question. We would like to emphasize that OSHA requires that anyone operating an aerial lift must be properly trained and familiarized with the specific make and model of machine they are required to operate. MEWP training states specifically that you should never use a machine if any control or safety device is malfunctioning or has been tampered with. The answer to your question is operators are not allowed to alter any safety device on the machine. Hope this helps you and others who may have similar questions.
Read the manual looking for how high can the lift go up but got confused with a few different numbers. Any idea what is the max height the platform can go??
Thanks for watching! The max platform height for the Genie GS-1930 electric scissor lift is 19 feet. The additional spec they generally give is "working height" which adds 6 feet to the max platform height because they determine that the average adult height plus arms reach is about 6 feet. So working height is considered 25 feet for this scissor lift. Hope this helps.
Is there a way to engage the Emergency Lowering cable from the upper control box? I'm just not sure what can be done if you're up in the air and for some reason the power went out.
There is no access to the emergency down release valve from the Genie GS-1930 platform and an operator must never climb down from an elevated lift. If you are stuck in the elevated position you will need assistance from someone on the ground or technical rescue from emergency services. When possible keep your cell phone handy. Aerial lift operators are required to have a safe use program in place before operating a MEWP. This should include a rescue plan in case of machine breakdown. The safest method is to always have a spotter or someone nearby that can be communicated with to assist in using the auxiliary lowering knob located behind the entry ladder on the Genie GS-1930.
Thanks for watching our video. In your situation, the safest way to charge the batteries on a Genie GS-1930 electric scissor lift is to contact your local authorized Genie dealer and have the on board charger replaced by a qualified service technician. However it is possible to charge your batteries one at a time with a 6 volt battery charger.
This video should be the first on the search results
One of the best demonstration videos I’ve n TH-cam to this day. Nice job man.
Perfect video. Clear and concise. Have a good holidays and thank you for your time.
love your old hit & miss engines
Thank you, you were clear and to the point. Much appreciated
At the job site with one. Now I know how to use it! Thanks Man 💯
Thanks very much. This was a great video. And much more helpful than Home Depot was in telling me how to use this machine.
Thanks for watching! Glad is was helpful!
Nice information, passed my IPAF 1b, 3a and 3b
Thanks for make it so simple and explain it so well
This video was great! Taught me everything I needed to know.
Thank you... Saved me a lot of grief in asking how lol.
There’s one of these at my high school. I’m gonna hijack it as my senior prank.
Great vid. Nicely done
Thanks a lot for your video
How would you operate a fan while using one of these, gets pretty hot all the way up near the roof
Does it work if you plan to start a rental business / side hustle with one of these machines? where can you rent it out?

Please update your video, I received my rental today and there is no switch from base to platform.
At 1:48, you show us the auxiliary lowering cable. What is the other red handle, just to the left and below the aux lowering cable?

Anyone know if these lifts can safely drive over a small curb to get on top of a sidewalk?
a curb of less than one inch high. I have that much of a step getting in my garage, and it barely made it.
Can you charge it off of a generator?
Thanks for watching our video! Yes, you can charge your Genie GS-1930 from a generator. Just make sure you are connecting to a 120volt circuit.
Would this be good for a demolition job
needs a flat clean slab to roll on.
What is the price of this machine
What's a co21 code
Why does the alarm just sound all of a sudden.
Put e brake on
50k is way to much . For a type R . I have found . 3 in the fast 10 minutes for under 43k
He never said what the black nabi pull out next to the emergency lowering nobi
That's to release the brakes so you can put it on a trailer
Damn it
I figured it out the hard way
Thanks bro I love you. Wanna get married?
