The feature package on this JLG 1644 telehandler is built around real-world productivity.

Telehandlers like the JLG 1644 are indispensable on jobsites where heavy or bulky materials need to be lifted, moved, and precisely placed. This machine fits naturally into:

• Commercial construction: Handling palletized masonry, rebar bundles, steel components, and formwork with confident placement.
• Industrial facilities: Supporting plant maintenance, material staging, and equipment changeouts where reach and control are essential.
• Infrastructure projects: Moving pipe, shoring, and construction materials across uneven terrain, aided by 4WD and foam filled tires.
