The 1850SJ by JLG is one of the tallest engine-powered telescopic boom lifts available, designed for applications requiring extreme height and extensive reach. This model is ideal for construction, industrial maintenance, or any project where access to very high elevations is needed, offering unparalleled performance for high-rise tasks.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Provides a platform height of 185 feet (56.39 meters), giving a working height of 191 feet (58.22 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to an impressive 80 feet (24.38 meters), allowing for work over significant obstacles or across wide areas.
- Up and Over: While primarily telescopic, its design and jib functionality offer some up-and-over capabilities for navigating complex structures.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz TCD 3.6 L4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, delivering 141 hp for robust performance. It features a fuel tank capacity of 52 gallons (196.84 liters), supporting extended operational periods.
Capacity and Platform:
- Offers a platform capacity of 600 pounds (272.16 kg) unrestricted, with an option for 1,000 pounds (453.59 kg) in a restricted mode for heavier loads. The platform dimensions are approximately 8 feet by 3 feet, providing a spacious work area.
Terrainability:
- Equipped with 4-wheel drive and an oscillating axle for superior performance on rough terrains, with a gradeability of up to 45%. This ensures stability and mobility in challenging outdoor environments.
Additional Features:
- QuikStik Boom: Allows for rapid movement from ground to full height, significantly reducing setup time.
- DuraTough Hood: For durability and reduced maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For comprehensive reach around the base without repositioning.
- Advanced Control System: With an LCD display for operator ease, efficiency, and safety.
Operational Benefits:
- The 1850SJ is engineered for productivity with its unmatched height and reach, making it a leader for high-elevation tasks. Its high-capacity option allows for more workers or equipment at height, reducing the need for multiple lifts or frequent repositioning.
Dimensions and Transport:
- When stowed, it measures approximately 42 feet 6 inches (12.95 meters) in length, 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) in width, and 9 feet 10 inches (2.99 meters) in height. Transporting this lift requires significant planning due to its size, but its capabilities in reach and height justify the logistics involved.
