Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Sourced directly from Genie, this boot is manufactured to the same material grade and dimensional spec as the original, ensuring a proper fit and lasting wear resistance on the joystick.
- Direct Replacement for Joystick 20424GT — Engineered specifically for joystick 20424GT, this boot seats correctly without trimming, stretching, or adapting.
- Broad Boom Lift Coverage — Fits a wide range of Genie S-series telescopic and Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the S-60, S-85, Z-45/25J IC Power, and Z-60/34.
- Protects the Control Interface — A sound boot keeps contaminants — dust, moisture, and debris — away from the joystick mechanism, helping maintain smooth and accurate operator control.
- Operator Safety Relevance — The joystick is the primary boom control input; a cracked, torn, or missing boot can compromise grip and expose internal components to damage that affects control response.
The thumb boot is a protective cover that fits over the thumb-operated section of the joystick control. It shields the underlying mechanism from dirt, moisture, and physical wear that can degrade the feel and reliability of the control input over time. When a boot tears or deteriorates, the exposed joystick internals become vulnerable to contamination, which can lead to stiff, inconsistent, or unresponsive control movement — making prompt replacement with the correct OEM part the right call for any Genie boom lift in regular service.
