The 460SJ HC3 by JLG is an engine-powered telescopic boom lift designed to provide high reach, capacity, and versatility for construction, maintenance, and industrial applications. The "HC3" designation stands for High Capacity, indicating this model's ability to handle heavier loads at height, making it ideal for tasks where multiple workers and equipment need to be lifted.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Offers a platform height of 46 feet (14.02 meters), providing a working height of 52 feet (15.85 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 39 feet 7 inches (12.06 meters), allowing for significant outreach over obstacles or to distant work areas.
- Up and Over: Designed primarily for horizontal reach, but its telescopic nature aids in some up-and-over applications.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz D2.9 L4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, which delivers 49 hp, ensuring robust performance while adhering to emissions standards. The fuel tank capacity is 22 gallons (83.28 liters), supporting extended operation.
Capacity and Platform:
- This model features three capacity zones:
- Unrestricted: 660 lbs (299.37 kg)
- Restricted: 750 lbs (340.19 kg)
- Further Restricted: 1,000 lbs (453.59 kg)This allows for up to three workers and tools to be lifted, enhancing productivity. The platform size is approximately 8 feet by 3 feet.
Terrainability:
- Equipped with 4-wheel drive for superior performance on rough terrains, along with an oscillating axle for better ground contact. It can handle slopes with a gradeability of up to 45%.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: For durability, reducing maintenance needs due to its impact-resistant material.
- Automatic Load Sensing System: Enhances safety by monitoring load and adjusting performance accordingly.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For comprehensive reach around the base without repositioning.
- Improved Multifunction Capability: Increases productivity by allowing simultaneous operations.
Operational Benefits:
- The 460SJ HC3 is designed for demanding applications with its high-capacity zones, offering flexibility for various job requirements. Its extended reach and capacity minimize the need for repositioning, thereby enhancing efficiency on job sites.
Dimensions and Transport:
- When stowed, it measures approximately 21 feet 4 inches (6.5 meters) in length, 7 feet 8 inches (2.34 meters) in width, and 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) in height. Its size requires planning for transportation but is justified by its capabilities in reach and load handling.
