Genie 97014 97014GT Complete Joystick Handle Set

Product Overview: Complete Joystick Handle Set (Part #: 97014 / 97014GT)

This product is a Complete Joystick Handle Set designed as a direct replacement for specific Genie scissor lift models. It provides a comprehensive solution for restoring the primary control functions of the lift, ensuring safe and precise operation from the platform.

Primary Function:
This set replaces the entire operator control handle assembly, which is the main interface for driving and maneuvering the scissor lift.

Key Features & Components:

This is a complete set that typically includes the following integrated components:

• Main Joystick Handle Assembly: The complete handle unit that the operator holds.

• Multi-Function Joystick: Controls both drive direction (forward/reverse) and steering. Often includes a dual-speed function (typically activated by twisting the handle or a separate trigger) for precise control in tight spaces.

• Integrated Lift/Lower Rocker Switch: A switch built directly into the joystick assembly for controlling the ascent and descent of the scissor mechanism.

• Horn Button: An integrated button for sounding an audible warning.

• "GT" Variant (97014GT): The "GT" suffix typically indicates this set includes the **Handle Grip and Trigger assembly, which is a common wear item. This makes the 97014GT a more comprehensive kit for repairs where the trigger mechanism is also damaged or worn.

• Pre-Wired Connector: Often comes with a plug-and-play connector to simplify installation and ensure correct wiring.

• Durability: Designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications, built to withstand the harsh conditions of construction sites, including exposure to dust, moisture, and repeated use.

  • Genie GS™-1930 / 2630 / 3230 / 3246 Scissor Lifts

  • Genie GS™-2032 / 2046 Scissor Lifts

  • (It is essential to verify compatibility with your specific model and serial number before purchase).

• Machine Type: Electric Scissor Lifts.

• Application: This is a critical repair part used to restore full machine control when the original joystick is damaged, malfunctioning, or worn out.

Purpose & Importance:

Replacing a faulty joystick with this complete set ensures:

• Restored Safety: Recovers full control over all machine movements, including emergency functions like the horn.

• Operational Precision: Provides smooth and accurate control for driving and lifting, essential for safe and efficient work.

• Reduced Downtime: A complete set allows for a single, efficient repair, avoiding multiple orders for individual components.

• OEM Compatibility: Engineered to match the original Genie design for reliable performance and easy installation.

Common Reasons for Replacement:

• Electrical Failure: Internal components of the joystick or switches can fail over time.

• Physical Damage: Damage from impact, dropped tools, or exposure to the elements.

• Sticky or Unresponsive Controls: Caused by dirt ingress or mechanical failure.

Note: Installation should be performed by a qualified technician. Always disconnect power from the scissor lift before attempting any repair. Confirm the specific part number (97014 or 97014GT) required for your machine.
