With only 175 hours, 4WD traction, a 34' platform height and 40' working height, and an approximate 8,600# operating weight, this MEC 34J delivers the height, stability, and transportability serious buyers expect.

Overview

The MEC 34J is a Straight Boom Lift built for efficient vertical and horizontal access where reliability and productivity are paramount. The 34' platform height gives operators the elevation needed for mid-rise construction, exterior maintenance, and installation work, while the 40' working height expands the usable envelope for reaching overhead tasks safely and efficiently. MEC’s proven boom design emphasizes smooth controls and predictable stability, helping crews get into position faster and stay productive through the day.

Backing that reach is 4WD, which gives this straight boom lift the traction required for active construction sites, uneven ground, and light rough-terrain conditions. The roughly 8,600-pound operating weight strikes a practical balance—heavy enough for a solid, planted feel at height, yet manageable for transport and repositioning between projects. With just 175 hours on the meter, this 2022 machine offers near-new runtime, minimal wear, and a long service life ahead, making it a smart value purchase compared with buying new.
