Advantages of the Genie GTH-5519

• Diesel efficiency and torque: A diesel telehandler delivers the low-end torque needed to lift and position heavy loads with confidence, particularly useful when maneuvering on grades or in soft ground conditions common to active construction sites. Diesel fueling also simplifies refueling logistics on most jobsites.
• 5500# Capacity: A 5,500-pound rated capacity hits the sweet spot for common construction materials—pallets of block or brick, bundles of lumber, roofing materials, and job boxes. It lets you consolidate lifts and reduce trips, boosting productivity without stepping up to a larger, more costly machine.
• 19' Lift Height: A 19-foot lift height makes the GTH-5519 ideal for low-rise and mid-rise work, enabling material placement at second-story levels, elevated decks, or mezzanines. It’s a versatile height class for residential builders, light commercial contractors, and maintenance teams working inside industrial facilities.
• Proven Genie engineering: Genie telehandlers are recognized for straightforward design and dependable performance. That translates to confident operation, strong parts support, and a robust network of service resources—key for keeping downtime to a minimum.
• Balanced performance-to-size ratio: The GTH-5519’s lift and height capabilities allow substantial material handling without the complexity or operating footprint of larger machines. That helps with site access, staging, and transport planning while still delivering meaningful productivity gains.
• Resale confidence: Brand reputation, broad parts availability, and steady demand for 19-foot telehandlers support long-term resale value when it’s time to rotate your fleet.

Practical Applications

• General construction: Move pallets of materials, rough-in supplies, and equipment quickly around the site. The 5500# capacity and 19' reach streamline staging and reduce manual handling.
• Masonry and concrete: Lift and position pallets of block, pavers, mortar, and forms right where crews need them, improving efficiency and reducing material damage.
• Carpentry and framing: Deliver lumber and sheathing to elevated decks or second-story platforms with fewer lifts and safer placement.
• Roofing and siding: Stage bundles and panels at height to maintain production flow and minimize downtime waiting on material.
• Facility maintenance and industrial: Support plant work, maintenance, and light construction inside or around industrial buildings where a nimble 19' Lift Height telehandler fits the task and the environment.
• Site logistics: Serve as a go-to material handler to reduce bottlenecks and keep trades moving, especially on tighter jobsites.
