The 860SJ by JLG is an engine-powered telescopic boom lift designed for high-reach applications in construction, maintenance, and industrial settings where both height and horizontal outreach are crucial. It's engineered to provide access to extreme heights with significant reach, making it ideal for large-scale projects or complex job sites.
Performance:
- Lift Height: Achieves a platform height of 86 feet (26.21 meters), giving a working height of 92 feet (28.04 meters).
- Horizontal Reach: Extends to 75 feet (22.86 meters), one of the longest reaches in its class, allowing for work over significant obstacles or to distant areas.
- Up and Over: While primarily a telescopic boom, it can handle some up-and-over tasks, though this is not its primary focus.
Power and Efficiency:
- Powered by a Deutz TD 2.9L Tier 4 Final diesel engine, delivering 74 hp for robust performance. It features variable speed control for enhanced fuel efficiency. The fuel tank capacity is approximately 30 gallons (113.56 liters).
Capacity and Platform:
- Offers two platform capacity options:
- Unrestricted: 230 kg (507.1 lbs)
- Restricted: 340 kg (749.6 lbs)The platform dimensions are roughly 8 feet by 3 feet, providing a spacious work area.
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 environments.
Additional Features:
- DuraTough Hood: Enhances durability and reduces maintenance due to its impact-resistant material.
- Automatic Load Sensing System: Adjusts the machine's operations based on the load for safety.
- 360-Degree Continuous Rotation: For full-circle work capability without the need for repositioning.
- Advanced Control System: With LCD displays for operator ease and efficiency.
Operational Benefits:
- The 860SJ is designed for productivity in high-elevation tasks, reducing the need for frequent repositioning due to its extensive reach. Its high capacity and reach make it suitable for demanding applications where access to heights is critical.
Dimensions and Transport:
- When stowed, it measures approximately 37 feet (11.28 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 transportation but justified by its capabilities in reach and capacity.
