The 460SJ by JLG is an engine-powered telescopic boom lift designed for construction, maintenance, and industrial tasks where significant height and outreach are required. It's engineered for efficiency, offering a balance between reach, capacity, and maneuverability to ensure productivity in various work environments.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Provides a platform height of 46 feet (14.02 meters), giving a working height of 52 feet (15.85 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 39 feet 7 inches (12.06 meters), allowing for extensive outreach over obstacles or to distant work areas.
- Up and Over: Primarily focused on horizontal reach, but its telescopic design supports some up-and-over applications.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz D2.9 L4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, delivering 49 hp, ensuring robust performance while adhering to environmental standards. The fuel tank capacity is approximately 22 gallons (83.28 liters), supporting extended operation.
Capacity and Platform:
- The standard platform capacity is 600 pounds (272.16 kg), suitable for one or two workers plus tools. The platform dimensions are around 8 feet by 3 feet, offering ample workspace. There's also a high-capacity version (460SJ HC3) for increased load capabilities.
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 conditions.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: Enhances durability and reduces maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- Variable Speed Engine Control: Improves fuel efficiency by matching engine speed to the workload.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: Allows for full-circle work capability without the need for repositioning.
- Improved Multifunction Capability: Enhances productivity by allowing simultaneous operations.
Operational Benefits:
- The 460SJ is designed for productivity with its extensive reach and height, minimizing the need for repositioning. Its design focuses on ease of use, operator comfort, and efficiency in operations requiring significant elevation.
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, requiring planning for transport but justified by its capabilities in reach and capacity.
