The Genie 49870GT Potentiometer (24493) is a genuine OEM component built for the Genie Z-60/34 articulating boom lift. Sourced directly from Genie, this part meets the original design and performance specifications required for correct operation. Cross-reference part number 49870GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right fit for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Manufactured to Genie's original specifications, ensuring dimensional accuracy and correct electrical characteristics for this potentiometer application.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to install in the same position as the original component, connecting to existing wiring and mounting points without alteration.
- Confirmed Fitment — Specifically matched to the Genie Z-60/34 articulating boom lift for straightforward parts identification.
- Accurate Position Feedback — A functioning potentiometer delivers precise signal output to the machine's control system, enabling smooth and accurate boom positioning. A worn or failed unit can cause erratic movement or loss of position control.
- Operational Safety — Boom position sensing is critical to safe aerial lift operation. Replacing a failed potentiometer with the correct OEM part helps restore the machine's control accuracy and keeps the operator protected at height.
A potentiometer is an electromechanical sensor that measures the angle or position of a moving component — such as a boom arm or joint — and sends a corresponding electrical signal to the machine's control system. This signal tells the controller where the boom is in its range of travel, allowing precise, responsive movement. When a potentiometer wears out or fails, the control system loses accurate positional data, which can result in unresponsive controls, unexpected movement, or the machine faulting out entirely. Replacing it promptly with the correct OEM part restores proper sensor feedback and normal boom operation.
