McConnellsburg, Pa. — February 24, 2015 — JLG Industries, Inc., an Oshkosh Corporation company [NYSE:OSK] and a leading global manufacturer of aerial work platforms and telescopic material handlers, introduced its G15-44A telehandler – the largest telehandler in the JLG line – during the 2015 Rental Show in New Orleans.
Designed for the North American market, the JLG G15-44A has a 15,000-pound capacity and several class-leading distinctions among comparable heavy-duty telehandlers, including:
- 31-foot horizontal reach
- 18-inch ground clearance
- 20-mph maximum travel speed
- 61-second boom cycle time
The machine also boasts the tightest outside turning radius and the lowest gross vehicle weight in the class, so it is agile compared to other machines and productive on the jobsite. It is powered by a 130-horsepower Tier 4i Cummins 4.5L diesel engine that is powerful and reliable.
“This machine is strong throughout the entire load chart,” said Brian Boeckman, JLG Industries’ global product director for telehandlers. “At the end of the day, features only matter if the machine is on the jobsite and being productive. The JLG G15-44A will deliver unwavering reliability, so rental houses can maximize their ROI.”
