Solenoid Directional Valve 1260130GT / 1260130 (3 Position / 4 Way) – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Solenoid Directional Valve with Genie part numbers 1260130GT and 1260130 is a crucial electro-hydraulic component used in the main manifold blocks of newer and high-spec Genie Aerial Work Platforms (AWP). The designation $3 \text{ Pos } 4 \text{ Way}$ (3-Position, 4-Way) indicates it is a spool valve capable of controlling hydraulic flow to a double-acting actuator (two cylinder or motor ports) across three operational states: neutral (center), extend/drive forward, and retract/drive reverse. This is typically an ON/OFF valve providing full flow once energized, controlling the direction and holding the neutral position of a double-acting actuator.
This valve is essential for reliable direction control in core machine functions such as main lift, slew, or drive. The part number 1260130GT is the necessary replacement for addressing issues such as complete failure of a specific hydraulic function, function creep or drift (if the spool is leaking in neutral), or a failure to engage or disengage due to a damaged solenoid coil or stuck spool.
🔹 Key Features & Benefits
✅ Directional Control: Provides reliable electro-hydraulic switching for double-acting hydraulic actuators.
✅ 3-Position, 4-Way (3/4W): Standard configuration for controlling the direction of cylinders and motors (e.g., lift, slew, drive).
✅ Positive Switching: Delivers clear ON/OFF directional control and a secure neutral holding position.
✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 1260130GT and 1260130.
