I see what you mean.
It looks as if the forks are bolted into the highest position already. With two more sets of bolt holes to lower the forks.
I just looked at the pic of your lift. It almost looks like you can bolt the forks to a high or low position. What do you think?

The fork can be rotated 180d up. and like a previous poster said a 24" extension can be bolted to the forks, very versatile. the mast sections come in 24" and 60".
Yes,
they all can, loaded with one man, including the one James posted.
"youth's guys" really need to read the directions for once.........
I do it all the time, the handle on the back side of the hand crank can be moved into multiple angle positions, see how low it is in James picture. it can rotate up to the 90 degree angle position and rolled onto a pick up bed. they have a tipping point you must find, you have to also lock the forks into place, (see the yellow bar). keeps the mast from rolling into your cage or back window when the Genie is laid over. the genie forks can also be put in upside down if you lack ceiling hieght for the mast, turns it into a platform.

If common sense is so common how come so few of us have it!
Why would you be on a job that needed a lift and not have the manpower to move it?
I see the problem now, James I do not see dolly wheels on your's? that's bent and not right, you should call them up and get the parts for it.
this break down POS has the dolly wheels on it...
Yours does not. I know they come with it, did not realize it was an extra?

Huh?
I'm hanging a coil in a walk-in. The coil weighs 200#. But I don't need 3 guys there with their thumbs up their a$$ helping me out.
Break the lift down, throw it in my box truck with the coil, and go to work by myself.
I don't see the need for a Genie in the kind of work I handle. If I was doing bigger jobs, I'd have one. And I'd also have the team of mules to move it.
...I almost forgot.......my dad can beat up your dad
You know, even if I needed/owned a Genie, I'd still have a Vermette for the smaller jobs. You don't use a sledge hammer to pound a nail right?
Vermette sounds too French and like "vomit"
Pull over ..I am about to vermette
Get back to work.™
Real men don't Vermette.

Can someone recommend a lift to get a 250 lb 3 phase motor to the top of a roof that's 25 feet off the ground.

I like to use local sign crane guys for lifts like those. around here in Tampa they run about 100 dollars an hour, if they are not busy and close by I can schedule a lift for just the hour, other wise they charge a min. of 3 hours. some one guy outfits only charge 60 an hour, you have to call around.
I always wanted to try that one that hooks up to your extension ladder, anyone ever try that one?
PS.
Last 5 horse I did all I had was a rope and hook, I barley made it up over the roof hatch.

I think our plan to get this motor up involves three men and one rope.
I am the new guy, so I know I will have my hands on the rope.
