Advantages and What the Features Mean in Practice

• Cummins Turbo Diesel: Power from a respected industrial engine manufacturer means robust torque delivery at low RPMs, dependable cold starts, and widely available parts and service support. In day-to-day use, a Cummins Turbo Diesel helps you move heavy loads confidently while maintaining fuel efficiency and keeping operating costs predictable. The turbocharging improves performance under load and at altitude, and the engine’s industrial duty cycle is designed for continuous, rugged jobsite demands.
• Outriggers (general telehandler context): Telehandlers may be equipped with outriggers to enhance stability when handling loads at reach or in uneven conditions. If your work involves frequent picks at height or outreach, outriggers can provide additional peace of mind and operational precision by reducing chassis movement. Please confirm the presence and type of outriggers or stabilizers on this specific Skytrak 6036 with NLEQ prior to purchase.
• 6000# Capacity (model naming context): In the Skytrak lineup, the 6036 designation is commonly associated with a 6,000-pound class machine. In practical terms, a 6,000-pound capacity allows contractors to lift palletized materials, trusses, masonry supplies, and jobsite tools with confidence. Always verify the exact rated capacity, load chart, and configuration of this specific unit to ensure it aligns with your lifting requirements.
• 36' Lift Height (model naming context): The “36” in 6036 is widely recognized to correlate with a 36-foot lift height class within the model family. That reach is well suited for staging materials to second- or third-floor elevations, placing loads onto elevated decks, or positioning items safely over obstacles. Confirm the exact lift height on this unit and review its load charts to plan your picks with precision.

By pairing a Cummins Turbo Diesel with the 6036 platform, Skytrak delivers a balanced blend of power, maneuverability, and operator confidence. For buyers managing mixed fleets, the combination of a familiar control layout, readily available parts, and a respected brand helps keep crews productive and simplifies long-term maintenance planning.

Applications

The Skytrak 6036 telehandler is a versatile, mid-sized material handler that fits a wide range of commercial and industrial tasks. Its class, power, and reach make it a go-to choice for contractors who need reliable lifting and precise placement in tight schedules and variable site conditions.

• General Construction: Move palletized lumber, sheathing, and fasteners around the jobsite, stage materials on upper floors, and handle daily logistics with fewer crane picks.
• Masonry and Concrete: Lift block, mortar tubs, and forms to working height, improving productivity and reducing manual handling risks.
• Roofing and Framing: Set trusses and place roofing bundles where crews need them, keeping work moving efficiently across large footprints.
• Industrial Maintenance: Support plant shutdowns and routine maintenance by moving heavy components, tooling, and spares where access is limited.
• Infrastructure and Utilities: Navigate uneven terrain while delivering materials to elevated platforms, catwalks, and access points around bridges or utilities.
• Agriculture and Yard Operations: Load and stack feed, seed, or bulk materials; handle attachments suited for seasonal tasks; maintain operational flexibility across property lines.

Telehandlers like the Skytrak 6036 help reduce dependence on multiple machines by combining lifting, reaching, and material handling in one compact platform. For busy contractors, that translates into fewer delays, tighter control over logistics, and higher jobsite productivity.

Ownership Value

Buying a used telehandler at the right hour count and price point is one of the most efficient ways to strengthen a fleet’s capability while managing total cost of ownership. Priced at $38,500, this 2017 Skytrak 6036 provides significant value compared to new equipment alternatives. With just 1,727 hours, the utilization aligns well with a long remaining service life under typical duty cycles, and the Cummins Turbo Diesel underpinning helps control costs with parts availability and widespread service expertise.

Beyond initial purchase price, the long-term value of a Skytrak telehandler stems from durability, resale demand, and operational familiarity across crews. A well-maintained 6036 can remain productive for years, and the market’s recognition of Skytrak reliability often supports strong residual values. Fuel-efficient diesel performance further helps stabilize operating expenses on jobs with heavy material movement.
