The Genie 217703GT is a genuine OEM Perkins Intake Air Hose Weldment designed for Genie S-series telescopic and Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the S-60, S-65, S-40, S-45, Z-62/40, and Z-45/25 families. As a direct OEM replacement, this weldment is manufactured to the same specification as the original component, ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation. Cross-reference part number 217703GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment for your specific machine configuration, including XC, HC, TRAX, and IC Power variants.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Air Path Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's original specification, this weldment maintains the airtight connection the Perkins engine depends on for consistent combustion and power delivery.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting points and hose routing on compatible boom lifts, allowing straightforward installation without modification to adjacent components.
- Broad Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits a wide range of Genie S-series telescopic booms (S-40, S-45, S-60, S-65 and their XC, HC, and TRAX variants) and Z-series articulating booms (Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, Z-62/40).
- Protects Engine Performance — A sound intake air hose weldment prevents unfiltered air, dust, and debris from entering the Perkins engine — contaminants that can accelerate wear and lead to costly engine service.
- Operational Safety Support — Maintaining a properly sealed intake system is critical on aerial lifts, where engine reliability directly affects safe operation at height. This part helps keep the machine performing as designed.
The intake air hose weldment forms a sealed passage that routes filtered air from the air cleaner assembly into the Perkins engine's intake manifold. By keeping this pathway airtight, the component ensures the engine receives a clean, metered air supply essential for efficient combustion and stable power output. When the weldment cracks, collapses, or pulls loose at its connections, unfiltered air can bypass the filter element and enter the engine, leading to accelerated internal wear, rough running, and in more severe cases, engine damage that sidelines the machine entirely.
