As a factory-sourced replacement, this switch is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a correct fit and function across the GTH models it serves. It is confirmed to fit a wide range of GTH telehandlers, including the GTH-5519, GTH-5021 R, GTH-5021 R IIIA, GTH-2506, GTH-3007, GTH-1544, GTH-1256, GTH-3713 SX, and additional GTH variants — cross-reference part number 56.0008.0001GT against your machine's parts manual to verify fitment for your specific unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Sourced directly from Genie, this switch meets the same dimensional and electrical specifications as the original part, so there is no guesswork about fit or function.
- Direct Replacement — Designed to swap in for the original Battery Cut-Out Switch without modification, using the same mounting interface and connection points as the factory component.
- Broad GTH Fitment — Compatible with multiple Genie GTH telehandler models, including GTH-5519, GTH-5021 R, GTH-3007, GTH-2506, GTH-1544, GTH-1256, GTH-3713 SX, and select AU and IIIA variants.
- Electrical Isolation When You Need It — A functioning battery cut-out switch allows operators and service technicians to fully isolate the electrical system quickly, which is essential during servicing, storage, or in an emergency situation.
A battery cut-out switch provides a means of completely disconnecting the machine's battery from the rest of the electrical system. On telehandlers like the Genie GTH series, this is used to isolate power during maintenance, prevent parasitic drain during storage, or shut down the electrical system in an emergency. When the switch fails or becomes unreliable, operators lose the ability to safely and fully cut electrical power, which can create hazards during service work and leave the machine non-compliant with safe operating procedures. Replacing a worn or failed switch with a correct OEM component restores that capability immediately.
