Condition

This used JLG G5-18A telehandler shows 912 operating hours, consistent with light to moderate duty for its 2019 model year. As with every NLEQ listing, it has been carefully tested and inspected before being offered for sale, ensuring that the information presented is accurate and trustworthy. Buyers can expect transparent representation of the machine’s current configuration and capabilities, including its Deutz Diesel engine, 50" carriage, 48" pallet forks, and foam filled tires.

Foam filled tires are a practical choice for active construction sites, where nails, rebar, and debris can turn standard pneumatics into an unnecessary maintenance headache. The included forks and carriage reflect an emphasis on ready-to-work utility, so you can put the unit to work as soon as it arrives.

Advantages

Deutz Diesel: The G5-18A is powered by a Deutz Diesel, a name recognized across the industry for robust, fuel-efficient engines. Diesel power is a natural fit for a telehandler, delivering the low-end torque needed for lifting, traveling with a load, and steady operation in variable terrain. Deutz’s widespread support network and reputation for longevity contribute to predictable upkeep and parts availability over the long term.

50" Carriage: A 50" carriage provides a stable base for load engagement and placement. The wider platform enhances fork spacing range and load stability, which can improve operator confidence when handling bulky or unevenly distributed materials. On busy sites, that translates to smoother, more deliberate load control.

48" Pallet Forks: The included 48" pallet forks are suited for standard pallets and common construction materials. Having the correct fork length improves load support and reduces the risk of pallet breakage or material damage. With the right forks on the machine, you spend less time changing attachments and more time getting work done.

Foam Filled Tires: Foam filled tires reduce the risk of flats and help maintain consistent uptime. This can be a significant advantage on demolition, renovation, or new-construction projects where puncture hazards are an everyday reality. Fewer tire-related interruptions mean more predictable project schedules and better labor utilization.

5000# Capacity: With a 5000-pound capacity, the JLG G5-18A covers a broad range of common material handling tasks—from lifting palletized masonry units to staging lumber, sheathing, or roofing materials. The capacity hits a sweet spot for many trades, offering the strength to move substantial loads without the footprint of a larger machine.

18' Lift Height: An 18-foot lift height provides the reach needed to service single-story and many two-story applications, including loading elevated decks and placing materials at height for crews. For residential builders, light commercial contractors, and maintenance operations, this reach is often exactly what’s needed to boost productivity without oversizing the equipment.

Applications

Construction and Remodeling: The JLG G5-18A telehandler shines on residential and light commercial jobs where maneuverability and efficiency are critical. Use it to unload deliveries, stage materials around the site, and place pallets directly where trades need them—reducing manual handling and streamlining workflow.

Masonry and Hardscape: With 5000# Capacity and 48" pallet forks, the machine is well-suited for transporting block, brick, and stone. The 18' Lift Height helps crews keep materials accessible at working elevations, improving throughput and maintaining steady progress on walls and facades.

Roofing and Siding: The ability to lift roofing bundles and siding materials to elevated areas helps crews stay focused on installation. Fewer ground-to-roof transfers translate into better labor efficiency and safer material handling practices.

General Material Handling: From warehouses with yard space to industrial facilities, the G5-18A provides versatile load handling without the footprint of larger reach forklifts. Foam filled tires are an advantage in mixed indoor/outdoor environments where debris may be present.

Ownership Value

Choosing a 2019 JLG G5-18A with 912 hours offers a strong value proposition: modern design, contemporary componentry, and a serviceable hour count that supports years of productive use. The Deutz Diesel powerplant is known for dependable performance and straightforward maintenance routines, supporting predictable operating costs.

Standardized attachments—like the 50" carriage and 48" pallet forks—keep the package simple and effective. Foam filled tires reduce unexpected downtime, helping you keep crews productive and schedules on track. For owners who need reliable performance day-in and day-out, these details matter just as much as published specs.

Resale outlook is another consideration. JLG’s brand strength, the G5-18A’s broad utility, and a configuration centered on practical jobsite needs all contribute to sustained demand in the used market. That helps protect your investment over time while you benefit from daily productivity.
