Condition

Condition is a core strength of this unit: it is a 2016 Core/2024 JLG Factory Recon machine, meaning the reconditioning work was completed by JLG to their specifications and quality controls. With just 40 hours, it reflects minimal post-recon usage, allowing buyers to step into a near-new experience supported by a robust 3 Year, 3000 Hour factory warranty. NLEQ’s process further includes careful testing and inspection of functional systems and safety components so you receive an honest, accurate representation of the machine. Foam filled rough terrain tires help reduce downtime caused by punctures, oscillating axles assist with maintaining tire contact over irregular surfaces, and 4WD ensures strong traction in tough conditions. The SkyPower system and jib were verified present and operational at inspection, providing ready-to-work capability for powered tools and fine positioning at height.

Advantages

• Deutz diesel reliability: Deutz is a respected power manufacturer known for durable, fuel-efficient engines that handle long cycles and high duty demands. That means steady performance for lifts, drive, and auxiliary systems during long days on the job.
• 4WD with oscillating axles: The combination of four-wheel drive and oscillating axles enhances gradeability and ground contact. On uneven construction sites, this translates to better stability and traction when navigating ruts, mud, or compacted aggregate.
• Foam filled rough terrain tires: Foam filling provides puncture resistance to keep the lift working where pneumatic tires might fail. That’s tangible savings on downtime and service calls in areas with debris or sharp materials.
• SkyPower onboard power: SkyPower supplies on-platform power so crews can run tools and equipment at height without separate generators or long extension runs, simplifying setup and improving jobsite efficiency.
• Jib for precision placement: The jib gives operators the ability to make fine, controlled adjustments at the platform, an advantage when working around steel, cladding, glazing frames, duct runs, or other tight areas where exact positioning is critical.
• Platform height of 150 ft: Reaching 150 feet of platform height enables access to tall structures including multi-story commercial buildings, stadiums, process facilities, and large-scale industrial infrastructure, reducing the need for scaffolding.
• 2016 Core/2024 JLG Factory Recon: Factory reconditioning by JLG helps ensure key systems are updated, inspected, and aligned with OEM standards. It’s a significant de-risking factor compared with unknown-condition units.
• 3 Year, 3000 Hour factory warranty: This is a strong warranty for a boom in this class, providing confidence in major components and helping you forecast costs and keep total cost of ownership under control.
• Low-hour machine: With only 40 hours, wear on major systems is minimal since the factory recon, allowing you to capture maximum useful life from the reconditioned components.

Applications

This JLG 1500SJ Straight Boom Lift is engineered for high-reach tasks where stability, outreach, and on-platform power are essential. Typical applications include:

• Commercial and industrial construction: Steel erection, panel installation, tilt-up work, roofing interfaces, and façade access at significant elevation.
• Facilities maintenance and shutdowns: Refineries, power plants, terminals, and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable high-elevation access with onboard power for tools.
• Infrastructure and public works: Stadiums, arenas, transit hubs, and large municipal structures where 150-foot access reduces setup time compared to scaffolding.
• Energy sector projects: Work around tall structures such as processing towers or major utility installations that benefit from 4WD, oscillating axles, and rough terrain tires.
• Specialty contractors: Signage, lighting, and telecom installation where precise jib control and SkyPower simplify the job at peak height.

Ownership Value

Owning a JLG 1500SJ like this delivers value in performance, uptime, and residual strength. Deutz diesel power is serviceable and efficient, helping control fuel costs over long duty cycles. Foam filled rough terrain tires reduce flats and the interruptions that come with them. The SkyPower system can eliminate separate generator rentals in many scenarios by providing platform power where you need it, and the jib expands your flexibility for complex tasks. The 2016 Core/2024 JLG Factory Recon status backed by a 3 Year, 3000 Hour warranty can meaningfully reduce your risk compared with equipment lacking factory-level reconditioning and support. That means fewer surprises, predictable maintenance windows, and enhanced reliability across your project schedule. In addition, JLG’s brand reputation and broad parts and service ecosystem support long-term ownership. When it’s time to rotate assets, JLG straight boom lifts with factory recon pedigree and very low hours hold appeal on the secondary market, helping preserve resale value.
