Genie Chain Drive 750, 550 and 525: preserve the model number

Distinguish 3035, 2035 and 2036 despite a common belt/chain owner-manual route.

Match the model before choosing a document

Identifier: 3035 / 2035 / 2036. This guide compares a family or related models. Use the exact configuration on your label.

Models covered: 3035, 2035, 2036. They are separate configurations; compare the applicable facts and documents below.

Genie names 3035 Chain Drive 750, 2035 Chain Drive 550 and 2036 Chain Drive 525. Those marketing numbers are not horsepower ratings.

The exact 3035 product page gives 3/4 HPc;2035 gives 1/2 HPc. The reviewed 2036 support page establishes its manual and name but does not supply a verified power rating.

All three exact support pages link the same belt/chain owner manual and a five-piece-rail installation route. A shared document does not establish the same supplied remotes, lighting or parts.
