The Genie 100489GT is a genuine OEM RT Pothole Guard Weldment designed for Genie GR and QS series vertical mast lifts, including the GRC-12, GR-12, GR-15, GR-20, and QS-12R, QS-15R, QS-20R, QS-12W, QS-15W, and QS-20W. Sourced directly from Genie, this weldment matches the original component in construction and geometry, ensuring a direct, bolt-in installation with no guesswork. Cross-reference 100489GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm applicability before ordering. When the pothole protection system is compromised, replacing it with a genuine OEM weldment restores the structural integrity and operational safety the machine was designed to deliver.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Fabricated to Genie's original weld and material specifications, delivering the same structural strength as the factory-installed guard.
- Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting points and profile of the RT Pothole Guard Weldment, so installation aligns with the existing hardware without rework.
- Broad Fitment Across GR and QS Lines — Compatible with GRC-12, GR-12, GR-15, GR-20, QS-12R, QS-15R, QS-20R, QS-12W, QS-15W, and QS-20W vertical mast lifts.
- Restored Pothole Protection — A damaged or missing guard leaves the lift's stabilizing system exposed; this weldment restores full coverage and keeps the machine functioning as intended on uneven or grated surfaces.
- Operational Safety Restored — Pothole guards are a rated safety component on vertical mast lifts. Replacing a worn or bent weldment with a genuine OEM part ensures the machine meets its designed safety parameters for elevated work.
The pothole guard weldment is a structural safety component mounted low on the frame of vertical mast lifts. Its primary function is to prevent the machine's wheels from dropping into floor openings, grates, or surface irregularities that could destabilize the unit while a worker is elevated on the platform. A bent, cracked, or missing weldment removes that protection entirely, creating a tip hazard and potentially rendering the machine non-compliant for use. Keeping this component in sound condition is essential to safe, day-to-day operation of the lift.
