The Genie Part #101173 (also referenced as 101173GT) is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) single-axis
joystick designed specifically for the control platforms of Genie
boom lifts. This critical component is the primary interface for
the operator to smoothly and precisely control the boom's
functions.
Key Features & Specifications
Genuine OEM Part: Manufactured to Genie's exact engineering specifications, ensuring
perfect compatibility, reliable performance, and longevity.
Guarantees the joystick will integrate seamlessly with the
machine's electrical and hydraulic systems.
Single-Axis Design: This joystick controls movement along one plane:
Potentiometer-Based: Utilizes a precision potentiometer to translate the physical
position of the joystick into a variable electrical signal. This
signal is sent to the machine's controller (PLC), which then
regulates the hydraulic valve for smooth, proportional control (the
further you push the stick, the faster the function operates).
Durable Construction: Built to withstand the harsh conditions of construction sites,
including:
Sealed Design: Protects internal components from dust, moisture, and debris.
Rugged Housing: Resists impact, vibration, and exposure to UV light and chemicals.
Ergonomic Handle: Designed for operator comfort and reduced fatigue during extended
use.
Part Numbers: 101173 or 101173GT (The "GT" suffix often denotes a kit or a specific packaging
variation, but the core component is the same. Always confirm
compatibility based on your serial number).
Primary Function & Application
This joystick is a fundamental input device for the machine's hydraulic system. Its core application is to
provide the operator with precise control over one of the boom's
primary movements, which is essential for:
Positioning the Platform: Accurately raising or lowering the work platform to the exact
required height.
Safe Operation: Enabling smooth, controlled movements to ensure stability and
prevent jerky motions that could alarm the operator or cause a
hazard.
Machine Maneuverability: Allowing for fine adjustments when positioning the platform near
structures or obstacles.
Compatibility
This joystick is compatible with a wide range of popular Genie
telescopic and articulating boom lifts, including but not limited
to:
Genie S®-60 Boom Lift
Genie S®-65 Boom Lift
Genie S®-85 Boom Lift
Genie S®-100 Boom Lift
Genie S®-125 Boom Lift
(Note: It is crucial to verify compatibility using your machine's model
and serial number, as control systems can vary within model lines
and across different production years.)
Symptoms of a Failing Joystick
This part is typically replaced when one or more of the following
issues occur:
Intermittent Operation: The boom function works sporadically or only in certain positions
of the joystick.
Erratic Movement: The boom moves on its own (drifts) or jerks unexpectedly during
operation.
No Response: The boom up/down function completely fails to engage.
Error Codes: The machine's diagnostics system may display a fault code related
to the potentiometer or control input.
Physical Damage: The joystick handle is broken, or the housing is cracked, exposing
the internals to the elements.
Who Needs This Part?
Aerial Equipment Rental Companies: For maintaining fleet uptime and performing repairs.
Construction & Industrial Maintenance Teams: For in-house repair of their owned Genie boom lifts.
AWP (Aerial Work Platform) Service Technicians: As a essential spare part for common repair jobs.
Equipment Owners/Operators: To ensure their machinery remains safe, functional, and compliant
with operational standards.
