The Genie 80282GT Thermostat (Deutz F3M1008) is a genuine OEM thermostat designed for TML-4000 and TML-4000N light towers. Sourced directly from Genie, this part matches the original specification for the Deutz F3M1008 engine found in these units, so installation is straightforward with no guesswork on fitment. Cross-reference part number 80282GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your serial range before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Specification — Built to the exact temperature rating and material grade of the original Deutz F3M1008 thermostat, ensuring the engine operates within its designed temperature range.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting interface and coolant passage dimensions for a clean, confident installation on TML-4000 and TML-4000N light towers.
- Correct Fitment for Deutz F3M1008 Engines — Engineered specifically for the Deutz F3M1008 powerplant used in these Terex mobile light towers, eliminating compatibility concerns common with generic substitutes.
- Protects Engine Longevity — A properly functioning thermostat keeps the engine at its optimal operating temperature. A failed or stuck thermostat can lead to overheating or excessive engine wear, shortening service life and causing unplanned downtime on the jobsite.
- Operational Safety — Correct coolant temperature regulation is critical on light tower engines running extended overnight cycles. An OEM thermostat helps prevent the temperature excursions that can trigger shutdowns or cause engine damage during continuous operation.
A thermostat regulates engine coolant temperature by controlling flow through the cooling circuit. When the engine is cold, the thermostat remains closed, allowing the engine to reach operating temperature quickly. Once that threshold is met, it opens to allow coolant to flow and carry heat away, holding the engine in its ideal temperature window. A thermostat that sticks open will cause the engine to run cold and inefficiently; one that sticks closed will cause rapid overheating. Replacing a failed thermostat with the correct OEM part — part number 80282GT — restores proper temperature control and protects the Deutz F3M1008 engine from the wear and damage that temperature extremes cause.
