The Genie 76069GT is a genuine OEM Counterbalance Valve, 4000 PSI designed for Genie GTH telehandlers, TZ and TMZ trailer-mounted articulating booms, and Z and ZX articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this valve is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring proper hydraulic function across every compatible machine in its fitment range. Cross-reference part number 76069GT against your parts manual to confirm the correct application before ordering. Compatible models include the GTH-1048, GTH-1056, TZ-34/20, TMZ-34/19, TMZ-50/30, Z-135/70, and ZX-135/70.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's original pressure rating of 4000 PSI, ensuring the valve opens and holds at the exact threshold the hydraulic system demands.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to match the original valve's port configuration and thread specification, allowing straightforward installation without custom adaptation.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — Fits Genie GTH telehandlers, TZ and TMZ trailer-mounted articulating booms, and Z and ZX articulating boom lifts, making it a versatile service part for mixed fleets.
- Controlled Load Holding — Maintains stable boom or attachment position under load, preventing unintended drift that can occur when a counterbalance valve wears or fails.
- Safety-Critical Function — On aerial boom lifts and telehandlers, a correctly functioning counterbalance valve is essential to controlled lowering and load security — replacing a degraded valve restores the hydraulic safeguard the system relies on.
A counterbalance valve is a hydraulic safety component that holds a load in position and controls the rate at which a boom or lifting arm is lowered. It works by requiring a positive pilot signal from the hydraulic circuit before allowing fluid to return from the actuator, which prevents free-fall or uncontrolled descent if a hose fails or pressure drops unexpectedly. When this valve wears, sticks, or begins to leak past its seat, operators may notice boom drift, jerky lowering motion, or an inability to hold a raised load steady — all of which compromise both productivity and safe operation.
