On the Genie Z45 man lift I bought, I've noticed the boom arm attached to the basket that slides in and out is showing signs of scratching and minor rust.I know the paint isn't going to stay unblemished forever [the machine has about 600 hours on it now] but I want to be a good steward until the kids get it when I pass. To me that means keeping up with all maintenance and I want to be sure I shouldn't be greasing that sliding boom. The owners manual is silent on that issue and some of the local experts say leave it dry and just keep an eye on the wear blocks that guide it. Before I follow that advice and ignore the paint rub, I wanted to ask the experts here. Grease it or not?
