The Genie 101601GT is a genuine OEM Radiator Hose, Upper, Perkins built for Genie Z-135/70 and Z-80/60 articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this hose meets Genie's original design specifications, ensuring a correct fit to the Perkins engine cooling circuit on these machines. Cross-reference part number 101601GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right hose for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Made to Genie's original material and dimensional specifications for the Perkins engine upper radiator position, ensuring correct hose wall thickness, internal diameter, and temperature rating.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to connect at the same routing points as the original, allowing straightforward installation without modification.
- Confirmed Fitment — Fits Genie Z-135/70 and Z-80/60 articulating boom lifts equipped with the Perkins engine.
- Cooling System Integrity — A sound upper radiator hose maintains consistent coolant flow between the engine and radiator, helping the engine stay within its operating temperature range during demanding lift cycles.
- Failure Prevention — A cracked, swollen, or weeping hose can lead to rapid coolant loss and engine overheating; replacing with the correct OEM part restores reliable sealing at both connection points.
The upper radiator hose carries coolant from the engine outlet to the top of the radiator, where heat is dissipated before the cooled fluid returns to the engine. On large articulating boom lifts like the Z-135/70 and Z-80/60, the engine works hard across extended duty cycles, making a properly sealed cooling circuit essential to sustained operation. When this hose deteriorates — through heat cycling, pressure fatigue, or age — it can weep or collapse, restricting coolant flow and causing the engine to run hot. Replacing it with the correct Genie 101601GT hose restores the original routing and sealing performance specific to the Perkins engine installation in these machines.
