Advantages

• Deutz Diesel Reliability: The Deutz diesel power manufacturer is known for robust engines that start reliably, run efficiently, and deliver consistent power under load. For owners, that translates to dependable performance, easier cold starts, and strong support throughout the service life.
• 4WD for Traction and Control: Four-wheel drive provides the enhanced traction you need when navigating dirt, gravel, mud, or uneven jobsites. Operators benefit from improved control on grades and better overall stability, helping you keep work moving even when conditions change.
• Foam Filled Rough Terrain Tires: Foam filling dramatically reduces the risk of flats and downtime. These tires are designed for rough terrain use, maintaining stability and load-bearing capacity while resisting punctures that would sideline air-filled tires on construction sites.
• Jib for Precision: The jib gives operators the ability to fine-tune platform position without moving the entire boom. That means faster setup around obstacles, more accurate reach to work areas, and less repositioning—saving time and increasing productivity.
• 45' Platform Height: A 45' platform height offers a practical middle ground—tall enough to handle a broad range of exterior and interior tasks while maintaining a maneuverable footprint. It’s ideal for contractors who need meaningful elevation without stepping up to a much larger machine.
• 51' Working Height: The 51' working height provides the extra reach needed for overhead tasks, lighting, ductwork, structural connections, and façade work. Crews gain the additional clearance to perform comfortably and safely at the work face.
• Articulating Boom Versatility: As an articulating boom lift, the 450AJ excels at reaching up and over obstacles—such as parapets, piping, or structural steel. The articulating geometry helps position the platform where straight telescoping booms can’t easily go.

Applications

• General Construction: Framing, sheathing, exterior cladding, and finish work where an articulating boom’s up-and-over capability is valuable.
• Structural and Steel Work: Access connections and welds behind beams, bracing, and architectural features without constant machine repositioning.
• Building Maintenance and Repairs: Gutter, roofing edge, façade, masonry, and window work that requires precise placement at elevation.
• Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing: Overhead ducting, conduit, cable tray, lighting installs, and equipment set-in where working around existing systems is essential.
• Industrial Facilities: Plant maintenance, equipment access, and safety improvements in busy production environments.
• Signage and Lighting: Install, service, and retrofit signage, poles, and fixtures with the reach and fine control the jib provides.
• Telecom and Utilities: Run lines, mount equipment, and make adjustments at height while navigating obstacles safely.
• Property Management: Campus and commercial maintenance tasks requiring dependable reach and tight positioning in courtyards and around structures.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used JLG 450AJ is a smart move for contractors, rental houses, and facility owners looking to maximize ROI. JLG’s long-standing reputation for durability, parts support, and serviceability helps keep total ownership costs predictable. The Deutz diesel engine adds to that equation with recognized reliability and efficient operation.

Foam filled rough terrain tires reduce the risk of tire-related downtime, a real cost saver over the life of the machine—especially on jobsites with debris, rebar, and sharp aggregate. The 4WD system and articulating design allow a single machine to handle a broader range of tasks, potentially reducing your fleet size or the number of deliveries needed to a site.

Resale value is another consideration: the JLG 450AJ remains a highly sought-after 45' class articulating boom lift, which helps protect your investment. With 1370 hours and model year 2018, this unit sits in the sweet spot of modern capability and used-price efficiency.

Why this 450AJ

Not all used boom lifts are created equal. This 2018 JLG 450AJ stands out with the combination of Deutz diesel power, 4WD, foam filled rough terrain tires, a jib for precise positioning, and the proven 45' platform height with 51' working height working envelope. The hours are reasonable for its age, indicating a machine that has more productivity ahead of it without the cost of a new purchase.

For buyers who prioritize uptime, traction, and versatility, these specifications matter. The articulating boom design helps you work over obstacles, the jib fine-tunes your position, and the foam filled tires keep you moving. Add in NLEQ’s inspection and testing process, and you have a used boom lift that is ready to perform. With an asking price of $39,875 and NLEQ stock number 146970, this unit offers a compelling balance of capability and value.
