The Genie 07.0703.0472GT Starting Switch is a genuine OEM component built for Genie GTH series telehandlers, including the GTH-5519, GTH-1256, GTH-1256 AF, and GTH-1544. As a direct OEM part, it is manufactured to the same specification as the original switch installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, straightforward installation. Cross-reference part number 07.0703.0472GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right fit for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Specification — Produced to the exact electrical and dimensional specification of the original switch, ensuring correct contact ratings and reliable engagement.
- Direct Replacement Fit — Designed to install in place of the original component without modification, connecting directly to the existing wiring and mounting points.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits GTH-5519, GTH-1256, GTH-1256 AF, and GTH-1544 Genie telehandlers, covering multiple configurations within the GTH family.
- Dependable Starting Function — A correctly functioning starting switch delivers consistent ignition engagement; a worn or faulty switch can result in intermittent or failed starts, causing unnecessary downtime on the jobsite.
- Operational Safety — The starting switch is a critical operator-interface component; an OEM replacement maintains the integrity of the machine's start circuit and supports safe, predictable operation.
The starting switch is the operator-controlled component that initiates the machine's start sequence. When the switch is activated, it completes the circuit that signals the engine to crank and start. A faulty or worn starting switch can cause intermittent starting failures, prevent the machine from starting at all, or in some cases create unintended electrical contact — all of which affect productivity and safe operation. Replacing a failed switch with a genuine Genie OEM part restores the correct function and keeps the telehandler operating as intended.
