Snorkel Lift Parts

This page holds 197 Snorkel lift parts, and they lean toward the electrical side of an aerial lift: toggle switches, drive and joystick controllers, solenoids, circuit boards and sensors, plus a smaller set of filters, seal kits and motors. Almost all are aftermarket, so the Snorkel name in a listing is a reference for matching your old part, not a sign that Snorkel built it.

When a platform stops responding to the operator, the usual suspects are a worn switch or a failed controller, and the number on that part is the fastest route to the right listing. The sections below show how the range breaks down, what the switch and joystick listings tell you, and how to search when a number is all you have.

Snorkel Lift Parts by Type

Switches are the biggest group, at about 40 listings. Controllers follow with 21, 11 of them joystick controllers, then 13 solenoids. If you need a wider choice, the forklift switches page covers about 1,500 across all makes, and the controllers and control cards page has about 4,100.

The smaller groups matter when you're chasing one specific fault. There are 7 seal kits, 7 relay and fuse listings (4 relays and 3 fuse parts), 6 sensors and 6 circuit boards, along with 5 circuit breakers, 5 contactors and 5 decals. Five air filters, four battery chargers and three electric motors sit alongside three ignition switches, three alarms and two keys, plus two hydraulic motors, two battery connectors, a gear pump and a fuel pump. For any of these, the matching pages for electric motors, fuses and relays and seal kits let you compare across makes.

Switches, Rheostats and Breakers

Switch listings carry the most detail, because two Snorkel switches can differ in how many positions they have and what the lever does when you let go. Toggle switches account for 15 listings. One reads "TOGGLE SWITCH-2POS, SPDT SEALED, TERM- ON-NONE-ON" and another reads "TOGGLE SWITCH, 3 POS, 4PDT, SEALED, MOM ON-OFF-MOM ON." SPDT turns up in 7 listings and DPDT in 5. Read the position and pole wording closely before you pick one.

Beyond toggles, you'll find a push button switch (3020128), an ignition switch (3020090), a switch block (3040185) and a guarded foot switch (3020021). Three listings are 10 ohm rheostats, 018094928, 3040497 and 180949. For protection there are circuit breakers, including "CIRCUIT BREAKER, 25 AMP" under 3040069, and an hour meter listing for 10-80VDC.

When the fault sits in the power supply instead of the controls, the batteries, chargers and connectors page is the place to look.

Joysticks and Drive Controllers

Joystick controllers are listed by style and by number. "NEW FOR SNORKEL 300579 AERIAL LIFT JOYSTICK CONTROLLER JS5 STYLE" and "for SNORKEL 304049228, CONTROLLER - DRIVE/STEER JS3 STYLE" show the pattern. Compare the JS3 or JS5 style against your old joystick, then search the number that follows the Snorkel name.

Plainer listings use "Part #" instead, as in 465144, 465114 and 0361449. Several leave off the style altogether, such as "FOR Snorkel Joystick Controller 560225." The forklift joysticks page lists about 310 joysticks in all, which helps if you want to see a similar part from another make before you decide.

Hydraulic, Filter and Body Parts

The mechanical listings are a short list, but each is specific. Seal kits include "Seal Kit, For Platform Rotator" (0071275), and the solenoid listings include "VALVE - SOLENOID 24VDC" (6018023), "ENG SOLENOID" (3040487) and "SOLENOID - 24 VOLT" (3087787). The solenoids page holds about 560 more across makes.

Filters include an air filter (8140011), an oil filter (8040149) and a fuel filter (8040155), plus "REPLACEMENT AIR FILTER FOR SNORKEL 8036232." Other listings cover a hose for the lower radiator (0074864) and a latch (5510022). A non-marking tire and wheel assembly (16x5) is listed under 330001. The steering parts page, at about 250 listings, is the next stop for linkage and steering hardware.

Finding the Number on Your Snorkel Part

Snorkel numbers are plain digits, mostly six or seven long, with some that run to nine, such as 304049228. Several begin with a zero, like 0074864 and 0361449, so type the zero or the search can come up empty. A handful of listings, 9 in all, use dashed numbers instead, and those are best searched exactly as they are written.

A few listings name the machine as well as the part. The speed control knob listing, "Snorkel 3040348, KNOB (Speed Control) TB60, TB42," names two model codes, and a strobe light listing names the ML925. If you don't have a part number, the model code plus the part name, such as "TB42 knob," is a sensible second search.

Parts That Cover More Than One Make

Nine Snorkel listings name another lift or engine make (JLG, Genie, Skyjack, Upright, Terex, Grove, Kubota or Ford), and these are worth knowing if you run a mixed fleet. One example is "Battery Charger 24v/25a" for JLG, Genie, Snorkel, Skyjack and Upright. Another is a key listing that names Snorkel, Genie GS1530 and GS1930, and Terex. The hour meter 3070001 is listed for Snorkel and for Upright.

If you also maintain those machines, the pages for Terex and Upright, JLG, Genie and Skyjack are the next places to look. Kubota engine parts have their own Kubota page, which is where to go if the part you need is for the engine instead of the lift.

What Tends to Fail on an Aerial Lift

A worn lift often fails where the operator touches it most. The platform controls take the daily abuse, so switches, joysticks and rheostats are the first parts to check. Power faults tend to point at contactors, fuses, relays and the batteries. Treat that as a starting point, not a diagnosis, because a part that looks bad can be a symptom of something else.

For lights and wiring, the sensors, lights and wiring page is the closest match, and the aerial lift parts hub lists every other make.

Snorkel Lift Parts FAQ

Which Snorkel parts are listed most often?

Switches lead with about 40 listings, then controllers with 21 (11 of them joystick controllers) and solenoids with 13. Most of the rest are small electrical and hydraulic parts.

How do I tell two toggle switches apart?

Read the position count and the pole wording, such as 2POS or 3 POS and SPDT or DPDT. A listing that says "MOM" also tells you the lever is momentary.

Can one charger or key serve more than one lift?

Some can. The 24v/25a charger and the key listing each name several makes, so check that your make is in the wording.

Who do I call with a question about a listing?

Call (708) 507-0707, Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Central. Have the Snorkel number or model code ready.
