Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Manufactured to Genie's original specification for dimensional accuracy and correct spring rate, delivering the same performance as the factory-installed part.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Engineered to install in place of the original component with no modifications, maintaining the correct cable tension across supported lift models.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — Compatible with a wide range of Genie vertical mast and personnel lift families, including AWP Super Series, QS-12R through QS-20W, GR-12, GR-15, GR-20, IWP Super Series, CWP Super Series, DPL-25S, DPL-30S, DPL-35S, and PLC PLI series.
- Maintains Cable Function — A correctly tensioned cable spring keeps the cable properly loaded and responsive. A worn or broken spring allows cable slack, which can disrupt smooth mast operation and affect lift reliability.
- Operational Safety — On personnel lifts and mast lifts, consistent cable tension is integral to controlled, predictable lift movement. Replacing a fatigued spring promptly keeps the machine operating as intended.
A tension cable spring maintains the correct load on a cable within the mast assembly, keeping it taut and properly engaged throughout the lift cycle. When this spring weakens or breaks, cable slack can develop, leading to inconsistent mast movement or loss of smooth operation. Replacing the spring with the correct OEM part restores proper cable behavior and supports the reliable, controlled movement that push-around and vertical mast lifts depend on.
