Condition

NLEQ’s process emphasizes transparency. Before being offered for sale, this telehandler was carefully tested and inspected so you receive a clear picture of its condition. Our evaluations focus on core systems that matter most to owners and operators—engine performance, drivetrain engagement, hydraulic responsiveness, boom operation, steering and braking function, and overall structural integrity—so you can plan deployment with confidence. Hours are a strong indicator of usage, and at 2,115, this unit reflects practical jobsite work without excessive wear typical of higher-hour machines. If you’d like to review what we checked or discuss any item in more detail, just reference NLEQ# 148306.

Advantages

• Proven brand pedigree: Genie equipment is widely respected for durability, straightforward controls, and strong parts support through established channels.
• Diesel power: Reliable torque for lifting and travel, strong fuel efficiency for long shifts, and broad service familiarity across fleets and shops.
• Compact telehandler format: Designed to access tighter areas than larger handlers while still handling demanding material movement and placement tasks.
• Operator-friendly platform: Clear visibility, simple control layout, and predictable handling characteristics help shorten the learning curve for crews.
• Cost control: A 2017 model with 2,115 hours offers a compelling value proposition—modern enough for today’s jobsite standards while avoiding early-life depreciation.
• Resale confidence: Recognized models from top-tier manufacturers typically hold value better, especially when they come with documented inspection and care.

For buyers optimizing fleet mix, the GTH-5519 fills an indispensable role: it bridges the gap between a skid steer and a large telehandler, taking on day-to-day material handling with less complexity and lower operating cost.

Applications

• General construction: Move and stage pallets of block, brick, lumber, and roofing materials; support framing crews and material placement.
• Masonry and concrete: Feed masons efficiently, deliver mortar mixes and block to work heights, and keep production flowing.
• Roofing and siding: Lift bundles to decks and staging points, reduce manual handling, and streamline logistics on tight sites.
• Industrial facilities: Handle maintenance materials, spare parts, and equipment where forklifts lack reach or terrain capability.
• Lumber yards and distribution: Load and unload trucks quickly and place materials in organized stacks—even on uneven ground.
• Agricultural and property maintenance: Move bales, feed, fencing, and equipment around barns, fields, and gravel lots with ease.

Because the GTH-5519 is a compact telehandler, it tends to excel anywhere mobility and visibility are as important as lift performance. Crews appreciate how this format reduces congestion while still accomplishing core lifting tasks efficiently.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used telehandler is fundamentally about lifecycle economics. With this 2017 unit, you gain the practical technology and refinements of a modern machine while letting the previous owner absorb the steepest depreciation. The hour count of 2,115 tells a story of real-world productivity without the fatigue that can accompany higher-hour machines, which means fewer surprises and more uptime.

Diesel power further contributes to value. It delivers strong low-end torque for controlled lifts and travel, steady fuel economy across a full shift, and a maintenance ecosystem that’s well understood by technicians. Parts and service support are widely available for Genie equipment, helping owners streamline planned maintenance and minimize downtime.

Operationally, compact telehandlers reduce site costs by cutting manual handling and enabling just-in-time material placement. That means crews spend less time walking, carrying, and re-staging supplies, and more time installing and finishing. Over a project timeline, those gains matter—and over a fleet’s lifetime, they compound.

Why this GTH-5519

Beyond the fundamentals of brand and format, this specific machine stands out for three reasons: measured use, trustworthy vetting, and price-to-performance alignment. At 2,115 hours, it reflects work history that’s consistent with a machine that’s been used for production, not punished to the end of its service life. NLEQ’s inspection provides the validation buyers require to plan confidently. And with an asking price of $34,950, it’s positioned to deliver immediate ROI for contractors, rental companies, and owner-operators who need a dependable telehandler without overextending capital.

Another benefit is market familiarity. The Genie GTH-5519 is widely known, which makes it easier to place in a mixed fleet, train operators, and source parts and consumables. It’s also a model many buyers specifically search for using terms like Telehandler, Genie, GTH-5519, and Diesel,5500—signaling broad interest and healthy demand. That recognition supports resale value when it’s time to rotate equipment.
