The Genie 217710GT is a genuine OEM Extension and Retraction Cable Replacement Kit designed for Genie S-80 and S-85 telescopic boom lifts. This kit replaces all extension and retraction cables in a single service event and includes all necessary hardware and fasteners, so no separate sourcing of ancillary components is required. For an easier installation process, Genie recommends ordering 94510GT alongside this kit. As a genuine OEM part, it is built to the exact specification required by these machines.
Key Features
- Complete Cable Replacement in One Kit — Replaces all extension and retraction cables at once, covering the full cable set for the S-80 and S-85 boom in a single order.
- All Hardware and Fasteners Included — Every necessary fastener and hardware item is packaged with the kit, eliminating the need to source additional components separately.
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's exact specifications, this kit delivers the dimensional and material conformity required for correct function on S-80 and S-85 telescopic booms.
- Direct Fitment for S-80 and S-85 Telescopic Booms — Engineered specifically for Genie S-80 and S-85 machines, ensuring proper routing, attachment, and tension when installed correctly.
- Supports Boom Extension and Retraction Function — Sound extension and retraction cables are essential to controlled boom movement; worn or failed cables can cause uneven extension, erratic travel, or loss of boom function.
- Installation Aid Available — Genie recommends pairing this kit with 94510GT for a more straightforward cable installation process, reducing the complexity of the service procedure.
Extension and retraction cables are the mechanical links that drive the boom sections outward and pull them back in as the operator extends or retracts the arm. On a telescopic boom like the S-80 and S-85, these cables work under continuous tension and flex cycles, and over time they stretch, fray, or lose their seating — symptoms that show up as uneven extension, jerky boom travel, or a boom section that fails to retract fully. Replacing the entire cable set as a matched kit, rather than swapping individual cables, ensures even load distribution across all boom sections and restores the smooth, controlled movement the machine depends on for safe operation at height.
