Overview

The JLG 943 is a purpose-built telehandler designed to move heavy loads quickly, safely, and efficiently across rough terrain. In the 9,000-lb, 43-ft class, it strikes a strong balance between capacity and reach, making it a go-to for general contractors, masons, framers, steel erectors, and rental fleets. This unit’s Diesel engine provides the torque you expect for lifting at height and navigating uneven ground, while the 4WD drivetrain adds traction and control when conditions get muddy, sandy, or snow-covered. The enclosed cab with Heat & AC supports productivity through seasonal extremes, and the included 60" pallet forks are ideal for standard pallets, masonry packs, lumber, roofing bundles, and more. Foam filled tires further decrease downtime by mitigating flats, and the Aux Hydraulics give you the flexibility to run compatible hydraulic attachments as needs evolve.

Hours are verified at 1,868, reflecting a reasonable utilization for its year. Buyers can expect typical cosmetic wear consistent with age and hours, with operational systems evaluated for functionality so it’s ready to go to work.

Advantages

• Diesel power for real-world torque: A Diesel telehandler delivers strong torque at low RPMs. That translates to confident lifting, smooth inching into place, and the grunt you need to handle dense materials and steep inclines without drama.
• Climate-controlled cab (Heat & AC): A comfortable operator is a productive operator. Heat keeps your crew moving in cold months, while AC reduces fatigue during hot, humid days. Clear visibility and comfort can meaningfully improve daily output and safety.
• 60" pallet forks included: The 60" fork length offers excellent stability for common construction and industrial loads. Longer tines support bulky or irregular pallets, help with load placement on scaffolds and decks, and minimize rehandling.
• Foam filled tires reduce downtime: Flats are productivity killers. Foam filled tires resist punctures from rebar, nails, and site debris, helping you keep the machine working rather than sidelined for tire service.
• Aux Hydraulics expand versatility: With auxiliary hydraulics, you can operate compatible hydraulic attachments to tailor the machine to new tasks as projects change, increasing utilization and ROI.
• 4WD traction and control: Four-wheel drive provides confident travel over mud, gravel, ruts, and uneven terrain. Combined with the telehandler’s ground clearance and jobsite-focused chassis, it keeps you moving when conditions are less than ideal.
• 9,000-lb class capacity: In the 9K class, the 943 is built to handle heavy, palletized materials, long lumber packs, and dense masonry bundles with authority, reducing trips and streamlining staging.
• 43-ft class lift height: Reach is crucial for multi-story work, roof loading, and staging on elevated decks. The 943’s class-leading height gives you the vertical access you need to keep crews supplied.

Applications

• Masonry and block work: Move full pallets of block, brick, and mortar to exact staging points, reduce manual handling, and keep masons supplied at height.
• Framing and structural work: Set lumber packs, trusses, wall panels, and SIPs where crews need them to accelerate framing timelines.
• Roofing and exterior trades: Lift shingles, insulation, metal panels, and equipment to rooftop levels efficiently, minimizing crane dependence for many tasks.
• General contracting: Stage drywall, rebar, formwork, and mechanical equipment across large sites, optimizing logistics across multiple trades.
• Industrial plants and yards: Handle palletized inventory, parts, and machinery outdoors on uneven surfaces where a warehouse forklift can’t operate.
• Infrastructure and utilities: Support bridge work, treatment facilities, and utility projects with dependable material handling across rough ground and tight access areas.
• Agriculture and material producers: Move seed, feed, fertilizer, and bulk bags; load hoppers; and handle pallets in farm and quarry environments.
• Rental fleets: A versatile, in-demand class size with a strong brand name helps keep utilization high and customers satisfied.

Ownership Value

Choosing a 2020 JLG 943 telehandler aligns performance, reliability, and cost-of-ownership. Diesel efficiency and a durable, jobsite-proven drivetrain help control fuel and maintenance costs over time. Foam filled tires further cut unplanned downtime from punctures. The climate-controlled cab supports operator retention and consistent productivity year-round. With Aux Hydraulics on board, you can add compatible attachments as your job mix evolves, increasing utilization without buying additional machines. The 9,000-lb/43-ft class is one of the most versatile segments in material handling, which supports both daily productivity and long-term resale interest. JLG’s broad dealer and parts support network adds peace of mind, keeping parts sourcing and service straightforward throughout the machine’s lifecycle.
