Genie GTH telehandlers – two naming worlds: GTH-636 to GTH-1544 by pounds and feet, GTH-2506 to GTH-6025 by tonnes and metres
Genie, part of Terex since 2002 and known above all as a maker of aerial work platforms, runs the group's telehandlers under the code GTH (Genie Telehandler). The programme has two roots, visible in the type designations: the North American models GTH-636, GTH-644, GTH-842, GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256 and GTH-1544 follow the US convention – the first digits give the capacity in thousands of pounds, the last the lift height in feet, so the GTH-1056 lifts 10,000 lb to 56 ft. The European models from the Umbertide plant in Umbria, which Terex gained with the takeover of Terexlift, follow the metric pattern: GTH-2506 lifts 2.5 t to 6 m, GTH-3007 3 t to 7 m, GTH-4017 4 t to 17 m, GTH-5021 5 t to 21 m and GTH-6025 6 t to 25 m. The suffixes SX, EX and ER mark equipment and control variants, R the rotating version with a slewing upper structure.

The register lists 23 versions with 47 to 119 kW, mostly from Perkins 1104-series four-cylinders and Deutz TD 2011 and TCD 2012 engines, with heights from 1,920 to 3,150 mm; recorded capacities run from 2,500 to 6,804 kg.
The rotating models with 17 to 25 m lift height replace small mobile cranes and work platforms on site in one machine; the compact US models are the standard loaders of American building construction.
On used machines, operating hours, wear of the boom wear pads, play in boom and slew ring on rotating models, the condition of hydraulic cylinders and the function of the load moment limiter count; parts run through the Terex/Genie network.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
