The 600S by JLG is an engine-powered telescopic boom lift designed for applications requiring significant height and reach, such as construction, maintenance, or industrial tasks. It's engineered for efficiency and performance, offering a balance between reach, capacity, and maneuverability.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Provides a platform height of 60 feet 3 inches (18.36 meters), with 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 primarily a telescopic boom, it has capabilities for some up-and-over work, though specifics are less emphasized.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz D2.9 L4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, delivering 67 hp for robust performance. This engine supports variable speed control for better fuel efficiency. The fuel tank capacity is approximately 30 gallons (113.56 liters).
Capacity and Platform:
- Standard platform capacity is 500 pounds (227 kg), but there's also a Hi-Capacity (HC3) model option that can handle higher loads in various configurations:
- Unrestricted: 660 lbs (299.37 kg)
- Restricted: 750 lbs (340.19 kg)
- Further Restricted: 1,000 lbs (453.59 kg)The platform dimensions are approximately 8 feet by 3 feet, providing ample workspace.
Terrainability:
- Equipped with 4-wheel drive and an oscillating axle for excellent performance on rough terrains, with a gradeability of up to 45%. This makes it versatile for challenging outdoor environments.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: Enhances durability and reduces maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- Automatic Load Sensing System: Improves safety by adjusting operations based on the load.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For full-circle work capability without repositioning.
- Improved Multifunction Capability: Enhances productivity by allowing simultaneous functions.
Operational Benefits:
- The 600S is designed for productivity with its extensive reach and height, minimizing the need for repositioning. Its high-capacity options make it suitable for tasks requiring multiple workers or heavy equipment at height.
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, requiring careful planning for transport but justified by its capabilities in reach and capacity.
