Key Advantages and What They Mean in Practice

• Cummins Diesel: Known for robust torque delivery, long service life, and widespread service support, the Cummins diesel in this JLG 1255 telehandler helps power through heavy lifts and demanding travel on variable terrain. Cummins’ parts availability and technician familiarity can reduce maintenance delays and support long-term reliability for fleet owners.
• Heated & Air Conditioned Cab: Operator comfort isn’t just a perk; it directly affects productivity and safety. With both heat and air conditioning, this cab allows your team to stay comfortable and focused in winter cold or summer heat, helping maintain consistent productivity across long shifts and changing weather conditions.
• Foam Filled Tires: Foam filling helps protect against punctures and flats that can stall a jobsite. The result is reduced unexpected downtime, more predictable scheduling, and fewer interruptions when moving loads over debris-strewn or unfinished ground. Foam filled tires also help maintain tire shape under load, contributing to stable travel when placing materials.
• Low Hours for the Year: At 2,178 hours on a 2019 unit, the runtime is attractive for buyers seeking a modern telehandler with plenty of useful life ahead. Lower hours typically mean less wear across drivetrain and hydraulic components, making this a strong candidate for long-term ownership.
• JLG Build Quality: JLG telehandlers have a proven reputation for rugged frames, intuitive controls, and reliable hydraulics. That translates into predictable handling when inching into position, steady load control at height, and responsive attachments—qualities that operators appreciate cycle after cycle.

Applications

The 2019 JLG 1255 telehandler is built to move materials efficiently where cranes or forklifts are impractical. Contractors, rental houses, and industrial facilities use telehandlers like this for tasks such as:

• General Construction: Positioning pallets of block, rebar bundles, lumber, drywall, and roofing materials where they are needed, reducing material handling bottlenecks and crane dependency.
• Framing and Roofing: Reaching upper elevations to stage trusses, sheathing, and shingles, helping crews maintain steady workflows.
• Masonry and Facades: Feeding crews with consistent material delivery to scaffolding lines, improving cycle times and reducing manual handling strain.
• Site Logistics: Shuttling job boxes, generators, and supplies across rough or unfinished ground quickly and efficiently.
• Industrial and Plant Maintenance: Supporting shutdowns, turnarounds, and facility upgrades with flexible material placement indoors or out.
• Municipal and Infrastructure: Assisting bridge, utility, and public works teams with secure handling and placement of materials in constrained or uneven areas.

Telehandlers provide the versatility of extended reach combined with the maneuverability needed on active jobsites. The JLG 1255 platform is engineered to help crews stage materials accurately, minimize delays, and improve overall site throughput.
