Hydraulic Counter Balance Valve 62256GT (Boom Cylinder Load Holding Valve) – Optimized Product Page Content

Genie Counter Balance Valve 62256GT

🔹 Product Overview

The Hydraulic Counter Balance Valve with part number 62256GT (often cross-referenced as 62256) is a crucial, high-specification hydraulic safety component used in the main boom lift/telescope circuits of a wide range of Genie S-Series (Telescopic) and Z-Series (Articulating) Boom Lifts.¹ This valve is a load-holding device typically mounted directly onto a critical lift or telescope cylinder. Its primary function is to lock the cylinder’s position, preventing the boom from moving or collapsing under the weight of the boom/platform or due to a sudden loss of hydraulic pressure (e.g., hose failure).

This counterbalance valve is absolutely essential for the safety, stability, and control of the boom movement.² The part number 62256GT is the necessary replacement for addressing dangerous issues such as boom drift, uncontrolled lowering, or jerky, unstable motion in the circuit it controls.³ A new, correctly specified valve is paramount for operator safety and machine compliance.

🔹 Key Features & Benefits

✅ Load-Holding Safety: Essential safety device that prevents cylinder creep, drift, or catastrophic collapse under load.4

✅ Controlled Movement: Ensures smooth, controlled, and predictable movement when lowering or retracting the associated boom section.5

✅ Broad S/Z-Series Fitment: Essential replacement for critical cylinders on popular models like the S-60, S-85, and Z-60/34.6

✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 62256GT and 62256.7
