Question Number

Question Answer

In Appendix 1, it states on Item # 5 for both the JLG 860SJ HC3 and the Genie S-85 HF specifications:

5. PLATORM CAPACITY (UN-RESTRICTED) 750lbs

This information is incorrect for both machines.

The Platform Capacity for the JLG 860SJ HC3 model is 500 lbs.

The Platform Capacity for the Genie S-85 HF model is 600 lbs.

Please refer to Revised Appendix I – Specs.

The specs of on Appendix1 and the two listed machines do not meet the requirements. The Platform Capacity of restricted and non-restricted is different than Appendix1 requirements. Please clarify.

Please see the Department’s answer to Question #1.

For the Requirements of the "Genie S-85 HF" unit, as noted in Appendix I, Item 5 Platform Capacity (Un-restricted) is 660 lbs. (not 750 lbs. as noted).

Is this acceptable?

Please see the Department’s answer to Question #1.
