Overview

The JLG 800AJ is one of the industry’s benchmark articulating boom lifts for accessing elevated work where obstacles, structures, or complex layouts demand precise up-and-over capability. The “AJ” designation signifies an articulating jib, giving operators finer control when positioning the platform. At a platform height of 80 ft, this machine reaches the elevated work envelope typical of large commercial construction, exterior building maintenance, and industrial projects, while the 4WD drivetrain and diesel power provide dependable performance on uneven ground and in demanding conditions.

As a 2018 unit with only 941 hours, this 800AJ sits at a compelling point in its lifecycle: modern controls and design, established reliability, and ample remaining service life for buyers planning multi-year utilization. Combined with NLEQ’s inspection process, it makes for a confident purchase and a practical addition to a rental fleet or a contractor’s core equipment lineup.

Condition

Every machine offered by NLEQ is carefully tested and inspected before it is listed for sale. That means you can evaluate this used JLG 800AJ with the assurance that its major systems have been examined for functionality and that its details are represented honestly. The 941 operating hours reflect moderate use for this class and support a condition profile consistent with a 2018 machine that has been kept in service, not sidelined. Buyers focused on uptime, safety, and predictable performance will appreciate the transparency and diligence NLEQ applies to every articulating boom lift, including this unit.

Advantages and What They Mean on the Job

• JLG engineering: JLG is a top name in aerial work platforms, known for ergonomic controls, robust booms, and strong parts support. That heritage translates to fewer surprises in the field and easy adoption by experienced operators.
• Articulating boom with jib: The 800AJ’s articulating geometry and jib allow operators to approach elevated work from multiple angles, clearing obstacles such as parapets, ductwork, or structural members. The result is faster positioning and fewer reposition moves, especially on congested sites.
• Platform Height: 80 ft: An 80-ft platform height opens access to multi-story exteriors, high-bay industrial interiors, and elevated utilities. In practice, it minimizes the need for scaffolding and delivers faster setup, especially for short-duration tasks.
• Deutz diesel power: Deutz engines are widely respected for durability and field serviceability. Diesel power is well suited to outdoor jobs and rough-terrain applications, delivering the torque needed for steady travel and boom functions in real-world conditions.
• 4WD rough-terrain traction: Four-wheel drive improves mobility on gravel, mud, packed dirt, and uneven surfaces. Getting the platform where it needs to be without delays translates into more productive shifts and fewer weather-related setbacks.
• Self-Propelled: Being self-propelled means the operator can drive and position the lift from the platform, cutting setup time between tasks and enabling efficient movement around the job site without additional equipment.
• 2018 build year: A 2018 machine gives you contemporary design features and component reliability with the benefit of proven field performance. It’s a strong balance of modern capability and value.

Applications

The JLG 800AJ Articulating Boom Lift is a versatile choice for numerous industries that require elevated access around obstacles:

• Commercial construction: Exterior cladding, window installation, facade repairs, caulking, flashing, and punch-list work at height.
• Industrial plants: Maintenance on conveyors, ducts, piping, and high-bay lighting where obstructions make straight telescopic lifts less efficient.
• Steel and structural trades: Access for bolting, welding prep, and inspections in and around frameworks where articulation is essential.
• Electrical and low-voltage contractors: Running conduit, installing fixtures, or troubleshooting elevated systems with frequent repositioning.
• Facilities and property management: Building envelope maintenance, signage, and seasonal repair work without the time and expense of scaffolding.
• Utilities and infrastructure: Bridge underside access, treatment plants, and substation work where precise up-and-over reach shortens setup time.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used JLG 800AJ with documented inspection and modest hours is a smart way to control cost per hour and reduce risk. The combination of Deutz diesel power, 4WD mobility, and articulating jib design provides broad utilization across projects, helping maximize ROI in both rental and owner-operated fleets. Parts availability and service familiarity are also strong points—technicians know these platforms well, and components are supported by established supply chains.

Operationally, an 80-ft platform height means a single machine can cover many mid- to high-elevation tasks on the same site, which streamlines scheduling and reduces equipment changeovers. Because the 800AJ is self-propelled, transit between work points is quick, often saving significant labor hours over a project’s duration.

Why This 800AJ Stands Out

• Low hours for the class: 941 hours on a 2018 unit positions this lift as a compelling option for buyers wanting remaining service life and predictable performance.
• Core jobsite specs: Deutz diesel, 4WD, and self-propelled mobility give it the capability needed for outdoor commercial and industrial work with uneven terrain.
• Articulating design with jib: Efficient positioning around obstacles helps crews finish tasks faster and with fewer reposition moves.
• 80-ft platform height: Broad utility across building exteriors, warehouses, and industrial facilities without the complexity of scaffolding.
• NLEQ-inspected: Offered only after testing and inspection, with transparent, fact-based representation to support informed purchasing decisions.
• Priced for value: At $89,950, this used JLG 800AJ delivers big-job capability without new-equipment pricing.
