Advantages of this Configuration

Every specification on this machine supports productivity and jobsite versatility. Here’s what those details mean in day-to-day use for your crew and your bottom line:

• Deutz diesel power: Deutz is recognized worldwide for robust diesel engines that start reliably, run efficiently, and are known for long service life. In a boom lift, that translates into steady hydraulic performance, fewer interruptions, and predictable maintenance intervals backed by strong parts availability.
• Diesel efficiency for long shifts: Diesel fuel remains the go-to for outdoor, high-duty-cycle work where run time and torque matter. It helps sustain lift, swing, and drive functions throughout the day, even under demanding conditions.
• 4WD traction and stability: A four-wheel-drive drivetrain enhances control on dirt, gravel, and uneven surfaces typical of construction and industrial environments. The added traction helps reduce bog-downs and supports confident positioning so operators can focus on the task at hand.
• Self-propelled mobility: Being self-propelled means faster setup, repositioning, and task-to-task movement without a separate tow vehicle. Crews spend less time staging and more time working, which improves job efficiency.
• Onboard generator: Power at height is a real productivity booster. With generator capability, operators can run corded tools from the platform without routing external power or adding separate equipment, streamlining tasks like cutting, fastening, drilling, or lighting.
• 60-class articulating reach: The 600AJ sits in the 60-class category many contractors prefer for its balance of reach and maneuverability. Articulation provides up-and-over capability to work around pipes, conveyors, mezzanines, and facade features where a straight telescopic lift may be limited.

Applications

The JLG 600AJ is a versatile performer across industries that need dependable elevation and precise positioning:

• General construction: Framing, siding, sheathing, fascia touch-ups, roofline access, and punch-list work—especially where up-and-over reach is essential.
• Industrial plants and mills: Maintenance on overhead lines, process equipment, mezzanine structures, and material handling systems.
• Steel, mechanical, and MEP trades: Duct, pipe, conduit, and cable tray installation or repairs in congested spaces where articulation reduces setup complexity.
• Warehousing and logistics: Exterior building maintenance, lighting, signage, and dock canopies where variable approach angles are required.
• Property management and facilities: Building envelope inspections, facade cleaning, window service, and parking structure upkeep.
• Utilities and infrastructure: Bridge work, substation maintenance, and streetscape projects where access can be obstructed by guardrails, barriers, or landscaping.
• Telecom and signage: Tower adjuncts, antenna mounts, and high-mast lighting where an up-and-over approach improves positioning without additional rigging.

Whether you manage large projects or frequent small jobs, an articulating boom in the 60-class range tends to be the “right-sized” choice that minimizes transport complexity while still reaching the bulk of everyday tasks.

Ownership Value

Buying used heavy equipment is about more than the initial ticket price—it’s about lifecycle value. This JLG 600AJ aligns well with owners focused on durability, serviceability, and long-term ROI.

• Lower acquisition cost: At $34,950, this unit offers meaningful savings versus comparable new models, helping you preserve capital for labor, materials, or additional fleet needs.
