Counterbalance Valve 40983GT / 40983 – Optimized Product Page Content

Genie Counterbalance Valve 40983GT

🔹 Product Overview

The Counterbalance Valve with Genie part numbers 40983GT and 40983 is a critical, safety-rated hydraulic component used on major hydraulic cylinders of various Genie Boom Lifts (S and Z Series). This valve’s function is two-fold and non-negotiable for safety: 1) it acts as a load-holding valve to hydraulically lock the cylinder in place, preventing the boom from drifting, creeping, or collapsing; and 2) it smoothly controls the speed of any lowering or retracting load driven by gravity, which prevents uncontrolled, dangerous “runaway” movement.

This component is essential for the safe and predictable operation of the machine’s primary movements. The part number 40983GT is the necessary replacement for addressing dangerous issues such as uncontrolled boom descent or retraction (creep), or jerky, unstable lowering movements under load.

🔹 Key Features & Benefits

✅ Load Holding Safety: Locks the hydraulic cylinder in position, eliminating drift and unintended movement.

✅ Smooth Motion Control: Controls the speed of overhauling loads, ensuring precise feathering and safe descent.

✅ Broad Boom Fitment: Essential safety component for popular Genie Articulating (Z) and Telescopic (S) boom lifts.

✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 40983GT and 40983.
