The JLG 800AJ is a formidable engine-powered articulating boom lift, designed for maximum reach and flexibility in high-elevation workspaces. It's tailored for applications where extensive height and horizontal outreach are needed, such as construction, maintenance, or industrial settings.
Mobility and Design:This lift features a robust design with an articulating boom for navigating around obstacles, providing access to areas that would otherwise be difficult to reach. Its structure allows for operation in congested construction sites or around complex building architecture.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Achieves a platform height of 80 feet (24.38 meters), with a working height of 86 feet (26.21 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 51 feet 10 inches (15.8 meters), one of the longest in its class.
- Up and Over: Offers an up-and-over clearance of 32 feet (9.75 meters), enabling work over significant barriers like roofs or other structures.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz TD 2.9L Tier 4 Final diesel engine, it delivers 74 hp, balancing performance with environmental considerations. The fuel tank holds 30 gallons (113.56 liters), supporting extended operation periods.
Capacity and Platform:
- Standard capacity is 500 pounds (227 kg), but it's worth noting there's also a Hi-Capacity (HC3) version that allows for increased load, accommodating up to three workers and their tools.
Terrainability:
- With 4-wheel drive and an oscillating axle, it's well-equipped for rough terrain with a gradeability of 45%. This makes it suitable for outdoor construction sites or industrial areas with uneven ground.
Additional Features:
- Includes a 360-degree continuous rotation for full-circle work capability, a platform rotator for precise positioning, and an advanced control system for smoother operations. Optional features like a jib for finer adjustments further enhance its utility.
Operational Benefits:
- The 800AJ is recognized for its industry-leading reach envelope, offering one of the best combinations of height and horizontal outreach. This lift enhances productivity by reducing the need for repositioning, allowing for more efficient job completion.
Dimensions and Transport:
- In its stowed state, it's approximately 37 feet (11.28 meters) long, 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 meters) wide, and 9 feet 10 inches (2.99 meters) high, requiring careful consideration for transport but justified by its extensive capabilities.
