The Foot Switch Assembly with Genie Part Numbers 73233 and 73233GT is the crucial operator control component installed on the platform floor of various Genie Boom Lifts.1 It is widely compatible with models such as the Telescopic S-60, S-65 and the Articulating Z-45/25, Z-45/25DC, Z-45/25J, Z-51/30J, and Z-60/34 series.2
This assembly functions as the “dead man” or enabling pedal. It requires continuous pressure from the operator’s foot to enable the primary lift functions (drive, steer, boom movement) via the hand controls. This is a fundamental safety mechanism designed to ensure the operator is actively engaged and positioned safely while operating the lift. Removing the foot instantly disables primary functions.
The assembly includes the rugged pedal mechanism, internal safety switch, and often a cover to protect the internals. Due to constant use, the internal switch can fail. Replacing the complete assembly with the 73233GT is mandatory for safe operation and regulatory compliance.
