The Genie 44172GT is a genuine OEM 3-Position 4-Way Solenoid Valve designed for a range of Genie rough-terrain scissor lifts, Runabout vertical mast lifts, and QuickStock personnel lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this valve meets the original engineering specifications, ensuring correct hydraulic circuit operation across compatible machines. Cross-reference part number 44172GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment for your specific unit. Compatible models include the GS-2668 RT and GS-3268 RT scissor lifts, GR-12, GR-15, and GR-20 Runabouts, and the QS-12R, QS-15R, QS-20R, QS-12W, QS-15W, and QS-20W QuickStock lifts, as well as the GRC-12.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Precision — Built to Genie's original valve specifications, ensuring correct flow routing, pressure response, and switching behavior for the hydraulic circuits on these machines.
- 3-Position 4-Way Configuration — The three-position, four-way design controls bidirectional actuator movement with a neutral center, matching the original circuit architecture for a direct drop-in installation.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits Genie GS rough-terrain scissor lifts, GR Runabout vertical mast lifts, GRC units, and QS QuickStock stock pickers — one part number serving multiple machine families.
- Restored Lift and Drive Responsiveness — A functioning solenoid valve keeps hydraulic commands crisp and accurate; a worn or failed valve causes sluggish, erratic, or unresponsive movement in lift and drive functions.
- Safety-Critical Hydraulic Control — On aerial and mast lift equipment, precise valve operation is directly tied to controlled platform movement and safe load handling — replacing a failed valve promptly restores the machine to safe working condition.
A solenoid valve is an electrically actuated hydraulic control component that directs fluid flow through the machine's hydraulic circuit. In a 3-position, 4-way configuration, an electrical signal shifts the valve spool between positions to route pressurized fluid to extend or retract an actuator, while the center position blocks flow to hold the load in place. When this valve fails or sticks, the machine may experience loss of lift function, uncontrolled movement, or a complete inability to respond to operator commands — making timely replacement essential for both productivity and safe operation.
