Genie GTH-5021 R 2017 Parts Catalog

If you’ve ever ordered a replacement part for a telehandler only to find it doesn’t fit, you know the time and money that burns. That’s why you want the Genie GTH-5021 R 2017 Parts Catalog open on the bench while you pull the old part. This is not a third-party reprint. It’s the factory document Genie ships to dealers – 264 pages of exploded views, part numbers, and serial number breaks. No guessing what changed between SN GTH5021R14-101 and GTH5021R15B-127. The manual tells you exactly which revision applies.

The table of contents starts with how to read your serial number and the machine data plate location. Page 3 shows the chassis serial number is stamped on the front right side member – that’s where you look first. If you skip that step and order based on the model alone, you’re gambling. I’ve seen guys waste a day waiting for the wrong hydraulic fitting because they didn’t check the serial number prefix.

Decals View 1 and View 2: Why You Need the Right Decal

Decals aren’t just stickers. Load charts, safety warnings, and capacity labels are legally required for the machine to meet ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2011 and CSA B335-04 standards. The catalog breaks them into two views: Figure 100 series for View 1 (page 10) and View 2 (page 12). Each decal has its own part number – 607650 and 607651 respectively. Using the wrong capacity decal because the number looked close is a liability I’ve seen cause failed inspections. Match the figure to your serial number.

Parts Stocking List: What’s in the Book

Before you flip to the engine or hydraulic section, scan the Parts Stocking List (page 7). It’s a quick-reference of the most commonly replaced components – filters, belts, seals, pins. If your shop stocks these for the GTH-5021 R, you cut downtime when a machine comes in with a leak. The list is organized by assembly group. Use it to cross-check your inventory against factory recommendations.

How to Order Parts Without Getting the Wrong One

The Service Parts Fax Order Form on page 9 is still the standard method for many dealers. You fill in the part number, serial number, quantity, and your account info. The form expects you to reference the figure numbers from the catalog. For example, if you need a decal from View 1, you list Figure 101.1. Don’t leave the serial number field blank – without it the order gets kicked back. I’ve had to re‑order twice because a junior tech wrote “GTH-5021 R” instead of the full serial. Cost us a shipping charge and a day.

Service Parts Fax Order Form: Still Used for a Reason

You might think fax forms are obsolete, but many Genie dealers require them for warranty claims. The form includes fields for machine model, serial number, attachment info, and manufacture date. Keep a scanned copy in your parts binder. When you call in an order, having that form filled out ahead of time saves phone time. The catalog’s version is exactly what the parts desk expects – don’t use a generic template.

Serial Number Range: GTH5021R14-101 to GTH5021R15B-127

This manual covers two specific serial number breaks. The title page lists them: from SN GTH5021R14-101 up to SN GTH5021R15B-127. If your machine falls outside that range, you need a different revision. The catalog also includes a note that Genie updates figures frequently – you can access revised figures from their website. For the most current data, use the Parts Lookup System at genielift.com. But having the printed catalog on the bench lets you verify parts without a greasy tablet.

If you work on multiple Genie models, check the related manuals: Genie S-60, S-65 2012 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Manual for boom lifts, Genie S-80, S-85 2012 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Parts Manual for the larger S‑series, and Genie S-80, S-85 2012 Parts Catalog – OEM Factory Specs for torque values and fluid capacities. For background on the importance of OEM documentation in the Automotive Industry Overview, it’s worth reading how manufacturers standardize parts. Automotive Industry Overview also covers the liability side – using non‑OEM parts can void certifications.

Stop burning time and freight charges on wrong parts. Access the Factory Manual and get the part numbers you can trust.

Does this parts catalog include torque specs for the GTH-5021 R?

No. This is a parts catalog – it lists part numbers, exploded diagrams, and serial number breaks. Torque values are in the service and repair manual.

Can I use this catalog to look up parts for a GTH-5021 R built after 2017?

Only if the serial number falls within the range covered (GTH5021R14-101 to GTH5021R15B-127). Later machines may have revised parts. Check Genie’s online lookup for updates.

What is the difference between a parts catalog and a service manual?

A parts catalog shows you what the part looks like and its number. A service manual tells you how to remove and install it, with torque specs, fluid capacities, and diagnostic procedures. Both are needed for a complete repair.

How do I find the correct part number for a hydraulic cylinder seal kit?

Locate the cylinder in the hydraulic section of the catalog (figures near the back). Note the figure number and item number, then cross‑reference the part number. Verify your serial number against the machine data plate before ordering. I’ve seen seal kits differ by one revision letter – that O‑ring groove changes.
