The Genie 8979GT is a genuine OEM Hydraulic Hose Assembly with Fittings, 24.75 in, built for Genie PLC and PLI personnel lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this assembly is manufactured to the same standards as the original, ensuring the correct length, fitting configuration, and pressure rating for the circuit it serves. Cross-reference part number 8979GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct assembly for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Built to Genie's original material and dimensional specifications, delivering the correct hose rating and fitting integrity for the hydraulic circuit it serves.
- Length-Specific Identity — At 24.75 in, this assembly is sized precisely for its routing application; substituting a hose of a different length risks improper routing and fluid loss.
- Pre-Fitted Assembly — Fittings are supplied already attached, so this assembly installs directly in place of the original with no additional assembly work required.
- Correct Fitment for PLC and PLI Lifts — Designed specifically for Genie PLC and PLI series personnel lifts, keeping the hydraulic system operating as intended.
- Fluid Integrity — A sound hydraulic hose maintains consistent fluid flow and pressure; a cracked, weeping, or kinked hose causes fluid loss and loss of lift function, making timely replacement essential.
A hydraulic hose assembly carries pressurized fluid between components in the machine's hydraulic circuit, enabling functions such as lift and lowering. The fittings on each end form the sealed connection points between the hose and the ports it serves; a damaged or aged fitting can weep fluid even when the hose body itself appears sound. When this assembly cracks, leaks, or loses its fitting seal, hydraulic pressure drops and the lift may become inoperable — replacing it with the correct OEM part restores full function and maintains the integrity of the circuit.
