Advantages

Buyers choose the Genie GTH-1256 for its blend of high lift capacity, tall reach, ergonomic design, and all-terrain drivability. Its configuration and low hours create a compelling value proposition for contractors looking to step up their material handling capability while controlling costs.

• Serious lifting muscle: A rated capacity tailored for heavy pallets, structural members, precast components, and dense materials helps reduce pick cycles and shrink overall schedule time.
• Tall reach capability: The machine’s reach is designed for multi-story developments, roof loading, steel erection support, and staging materials where tower cranes aren’t practical.
• 4WD traction: Four-wheel drive provides confident travel across uneven, muddy, or loose ground, keeping the machine productive in changing site conditions.
• Diesel efficiency: Diesel power offers the torque needed for steady control under load, plus the endurance to keep the machine working through long shifts.
• Heated & Air Conditioned Cab: Operator comfort translates into better focus and consistency through temperature extremes. Crews can maintain productivity in winter cold or summer heat.
• Foam Filled Tires: Foam fill helps mitigate downtime due to flats and slow leaks. For active production schedules, fewer tire-related interruptions contribute to steady output.
• Outriggers: Stabilization assistance adds confidence when you’re handling weighty loads at height or working near the machine’s envelope limits.
• Low-hour 2020 unit: With 1,248 hours, this telehandler offers a favorable balance of modern design and remaining service life, making it an attractive asset for fleets and owner-operators.

Applications

The Genie GTH-1256 Telehandler is a versatile tool carrier and material mover suitable across numerous sectors. Contractors and industrial operators use it to minimize crane rentals, streamline logistics, and improve site safety by placing loads precisely where they are needed.

• Commercial construction: Move and stage heavy pallets of block, brick, roofing materials, drywall, and MEP components to upper floors and tight access points.
• Structural steel and precast: Support erection activities by positioning beams, panels, and connections at working height, reducing manual handling and improving efficiency.
• Industrial plants and maintenance: Transport large parts, motors, and process components in plants, refineries, and utilities yards where robust lift capability is critical.
• Infrastructure and municipal work: Handle barriers, forms, pipe, and utility vaults on uneven rights-of-way, leveraging 4WD and stabilization to maintain control.
• Material yards and truss plants: Keep production moving by loading and unloading trucks quickly, staging heavy bundles, and feeding manufacturing cells.
• Event and facility logistics: Set bleachers, stage elements, and temporary structures with precise placement on varied surfaces.
