The Genie 6947GT is a genuine OEM Manual Release Lever built for Genie Powered Superlift, DPL, PLC PLI, AWP, and IWP personnel and material lift units.

Cross-reference part number 6947GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right lever for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Genie's original dimensional and material specifications, so the lever seats and operates exactly as the factory component did.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — replaces the original lever without modification, restoring the manual release mechanism to its correct operating position.
- Broad Genie Lift Compatibility — fits Genie AWP, IWP, DPL, PLC PLI, and Powered Superlift models, making this lever a practical stock item for fleets running multiple Genie personnel and material lift lines.
- Restores Manual Override Function — a worn or damaged release lever can prevent the operator from safely lowering or releasing the platform manually; replacing it with the correct OEM part restores that capability.
A manual release lever gives the operator the ability to lower or disengage the lift platform independently of the primary drive system — an essential control feature on personnel and material lifts such as the AWP, IWP, DPL, and Powered Superlift lines. When the lever is cracked, bent, or worn to the point where it no longer actuates cleanly, the manual release function becomes unreliable, which is a serious concern during any situation that requires controlled lowering. Replacing the lever with the correct Genie OEM part restores full, positive control of the release mechanism and keeps the unit operating as intended.
