The 600S HC3 by JLG is an engine-powered telescopic boom lift designed for high-capacity lifting tasks in construction, maintenance, or industrial settings. The "HC3" designation indicates a High Capacity model, which means this lift is optimized for scenarios where multiple workers or heavier loads need to be elevated, offering flexibility and productivity at significant heights.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Delivers a platform height of 60 feet 3 inches (18.36 meters), providing a working height of 66 feet 3 inches (20.19 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 51 feet (15.54 meters), allowing for extensive outreach over obstacles or to distant work areas.
- Up and Over: While its design focuses on horizontal reach, it can perform some up-and-over tasks.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz D2.9 L4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, delivering 67 hp for reliable performance. This engine supports variable speed control for enhanced fuel efficiency. The fuel tank capacity is approximately 30 gallons (113.56 liters).
Capacity and Platform:
- The HC3 model introduces 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 dimensions are approximately 8 feet by 3 feet.
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 on challenging job sites.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: For durability and less maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- Automatic Load Sensing System: Enhances safety by adjusting performance according to the load.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For comprehensive reach around the base without repositioning.
- Improved Multifunction Capability: Increases productivity by allowing simultaneous operations.
Operational Benefits:
- The 600S 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 roughly 29 feet 1 inch (8.86 meters) in length, 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) in width, and 8 feet 4 inches (2.54 meters) in height. Its size requires planning for transportation but is justified by its capabilities in reach and load handling.
