Genie GTH-1056 Telehandler
Inspection Guide

A high-reach telehandler where boom condition and the load-chart system matter even more. Reach amplifies every bit of boom wear.

The GTH-1056 reaches higher and heavier than compact telehandlers, which makes boom condition and the stability system even more critical. We inspect the boom under load and verify the machine lifts to its chart.

Known problem areas — what we check
Costly Safety Common Verify
Boom wear pads & section slop Costly

At full reach, worn pads become a serious stability problem.

CHECK Extend fully and check for play; inspect wear pads.

Lift / extend / tilt cylinders Costly

Cylinders drift and leak under load.

CHECK Hold a load at reach and check for drift.

Load moment indicator / load chart Safety

The LMI is essential on a high-reach machine.

CHECK Verify LMI function and that the load chart is present.

Forks & carriage Safety

Forks and carriage wear.

CHECK Caliper fork heels and inspect carriage.

Frame leveling, axles & tires Common

Leveling and driveline wear affect stability.

CHECK Test leveling and inspect axles and tires.

Model-specific focus points
  • Check boom pads at full extension
  • Hold a load at reach for drift
  • Verify the LMI
  • Caliper the forks
  • Test leveling and inspect tires
