Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original specifications, with the correct dimensions and material grade for a proper fit in the locking mechanism.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Installs in place of the original component without adaptation, restoring the locking function to its original condition.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Fitment — Compatible with Genie GTH-636, GTH-844, GTH-1056, and GTH-1256 telehandlers, covering the core of the GTH product range.
- Consistent Engagement — A sound locking knob holds its set position securely; a worn or damaged one can slip or fail to engage, affecting operator control and machine reliability.
- Operator Safety — Locking knobs on telehandlers are often part of a control or adjustment mechanism where secure engagement matters for safe machine operation — replacing a damaged one promptly is an important maintenance step.
A locking knob secures a control, lever, or adjustable component in its selected position, preventing unintended movement during machine operation. When the knob is worn, cracked, or stripped, it may no longer hold its set position reliably, which can affect operator control and the accuracy of the function it governs. Replacing a damaged locking knob with the correct OEM part restores secure, positive engagement and keeps the affected control operating as intended.
