Advantages and What Each Feature Means in Practice

• Diesel power: A diesel telehandler provides dependable torque for lifting and placement tasks, especially when working with heavy materials. The fueling infrastructure is straightforward for most jobsites, and diesel efficiency helps keep operating costs predictable over long workdays.
• Heated cab: The heated cab supports operator comfort during cold-weather projects, helping maintain focus and productivity. Better visibility and comfort can translate into smoother cycle times and safer operations when temperatures drop.
• Foam filled tires: Foam filled tires dramatically reduce the risk of flats from nails, rebar, or sharp debris, a common concern on construction sites. That added puncture resistance keeps the machine available and working, reducing interruptions and avoiding the cost and delay of on-site tire repairs.
• Outriggers: Outriggers enhance stability for lifts at height and near the machine’s capacity. When leveling and stabilizing the telehandler on uneven terrain, outriggers help the operator maintain confidence and control while placing materials precisely.
• 12,000 lb capacity: A 12,000 lb capacity telehandler gives you the headroom to lift and move heavy pallets, structural steel, dense masonry packs, and bulky mechanical units. This capacity can consolidate tasks that might otherwise require multiple machines or extra handling steps.
• 56 ft reach: With up to 56 ft of reach, the GTH1256 helps crews place materials on elevated decks, rooftops, and multi-story structures without repositioning as frequently. More reach means fewer machine moves, improved efficiency, and better access to hard-to-reach placements.

Applications

The Genie GTH-1256 is a versatile telehandler designed to accelerate material handling across a broad spectrum of projects. General contractors count on this platform for staging and placing palletized loads, trusses, rebar bundles, and formwork. Structural and framing crews benefit from the 56 ft reach when setting components on elevated floors. MEP contractors can use the 12,000 lb capacity to position heavy HVAC units, generators, and equipment skids. Industrial facilities leverage the machine for maintenance lifts and plant improvements, while yard and logistics operations value the ability to load and offload materials quickly. The combination of diesel power, foam filled tires, outriggers, and a heated cab makes the GTH1256 suitable for outdoor construction in varied climates and for rough-terrain tasks where traction and uptime are critical.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used 2018 Genie GTH1256 with 2,690 hours offers compelling total cost of ownership. You gain the workhorse capability of a high-capacity telehandler without absorbing the steepest portion of early depreciation. Diesel efficiency helps keep the cost per operating hour in check, and the durability of the Genie platform supports long service life. Foam filled tires cut down on job-interrupting punctures, while a heated cab enables multi-season utilization and better return on capital. For fleet managers, this specification profile aligns with utilization targets across commercial building, infrastructure, and industrial jobs, helping the machine earn its keep faster. In addition, the broad recognition of the Genie brand simplifies operator training and parts sourcing across most regions.

Why This GTH1256

Not all telehandlers are equal in real-world jobsite performance. This Genie GTH-1256 combines a 12,000 lb capacity with a 56 ft reach, outriggers for added stability, and a heated cab for operator comfort in cold conditions. The foam filled tires are a practical uptime advantage on debris-laden sites, and diesel power is the standard for heavy lift duty cycles.
