The Genie 62256GT is a genuine OEM CB 3:1 3500 PSI Valve built for Genie S-60, S-65, and Z-60/34 boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this valve is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a correct fit and consistent operation on the machines it serves. Cross-reference part number 62256GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right valve for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — Manufactured to Genie's original specifications, with the correct 3:1 ratio and 3500 PSI rating that this application demands.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Engineered to install directly in place of the original valve with no modification, maintaining the integrity of the circuit it serves.
- Broad Boom Lift Fitment — Compatible with Genie S-60 and S-65 telescopic boom lifts and the Z-60/34 articulating boom lift.
- Counterbalance Function — A properly functioning counterbalance valve holds a load securely and controls descent, preventing uncontrolled movement if a line or fitting loses pressure.
A counterbalance valve is a load-holding and flow-control component that prevents a boom or cylinder from drifting or dropping uncontrolled when pressure is removed from the circuit. It holds the load in place until an active pilot signal is applied to permit controlled movement. When this valve wears, leaks internally, or fails, the boom may drift out of position or descend unexpectedly — a serious concern on elevated aerial equipment. Replacing it with the correct OEM part, such as the 62256GT, restores proper load-holding performance and keeps the lift operating as designed.
