Condition

With 1,210 operating hours on a 2022 model, this used JLG 1255 telehandler reflects practical, real-world usage and has been carefully tested and inspected by NLEQ prior to being offered for sale. Our team confirms operational status and provides accurate, honest information so you can make a confident purchase decision. While cosmetic wear consistent with age and hours should be expected on any pre-owned machine, buyers can count on a telehandler that has been evaluated for core functionality, giving you a straightforward path to putting it to work quickly upon delivery.

Advantages of This Configuration

• Diesel power: Proven, widely supported power source for telehandlers, suited for long operating days and demanding lift cycles. Diesel engines deliver the torque and durability needed to handle heavy materials, uneven ground, and frequent repositioning.
• Foam filled tires: A major advantage on debris-prone jobsites. Foam filling helps minimize downtime from punctures, maintains tire shape for better stability under load, and supports consistent operation over rough or unfinished surfaces.
• 4WD traction: Four-wheel drive is essential for off-road mobility, slope work, and muddy, rutted, or loose ground. 4WD helps maintain productivity by allowing the telehandler to approach load points and staging areas others can’t reach.
• Outriggers for stability: Outriggers add a valuable layer of stability when handling heavy loads or working near the edges of the envelope. This extra stabilization supports precise placement, helping crews work more confidently and efficiently.
• 1255 class capability: The 12,000/55 class is ideal when the job calls for substantial lifting performance and meaningful reach. For buyers, that means the ability to handle larger materials and place them where they’re needed—reducing crane reliance and time-consuming material handoffs.

Together, these features create a telehandler that is purpose-built for productivity, safety-minded operation, and predictable performance day after day.

Applications and Industry Relevance

A JLG 1255 telehandler fits naturally into a wide range of material handling and installation tasks where power, reach, and jobsite mobility drive the schedule. Whether you manage a construction fleet or run a facility with ongoing maintenance and material movement needs, the 1255 class is a strong, versatile choice.

• Commercial construction: Move and place structural members, framing packages, curtain wall and glazing crates, roofing materials, and MEP components efficiently across dynamic jobsites.
• Industrial and plant maintenance: Support shutdowns, equipment swaps, and staging operations with reliable reach and maneuverability inside yards and around tight access points.
• Infrastructure and utilities: Handle precast, pipe, and materials staging where variable ground conditions demand 4WD and stabilization.
• Steel erection and fabrication: Position bundles, racks, and picks where lifts require stable reach, aided by outriggers for added confidence.
• Masonry and façade work: Lift block, stone, brick packs, and scaffolding materials to working height efficiently, supported by foam filled tires that help minimize downtime.
• Rental fleets: The JLG 1255 is a sought-after class for rental customers who need a strong, straightforward telehandler with the right blend of power and usability.

In each of these scenarios, the diesel JLG 1255 telehandler offers dependable performance and simplified logistics—particularly when the job demands both capacity and reach from a single, go-anywhere machine.

Ownership Value

Investing in a used telehandler for sale from a credible source is as much about long-term value as it is about upfront cost. This 2022 JLG 1255 delivers on both fronts. JLG is known for a broad support network and strong parts availability, which helps reduce downtime over the life of the machine. The diesel powertrain is field-proven, making it a sensible option for operators and maintenance teams alike. Foam filled tires and 4WD reduce jobsite interruptions tied to ground conditions, while outriggers support precise, stable lifts—qualities that translate directly into productivity and schedule control.

With 1,210 hours, this unit’s usage aligns well with expectations for a modern machine that still has a long service life ahead. For owners balancing utilization, reliability, and cost of ownership, the JLG 1255 class is a smart choice that retains appeal across projects and end users—beneficial both for current operations and future resale considerations.

Why This 1255 Stands Out

Among used telehandlers, configuration and history matter. This JLG 1255 stands out because it brings together the most sought-after features—diesel, foam filled tires, 4WD, and outriggers—with a 2022 build and just 1,210 hours. The 12,000/55 class capability ensures it can support heavier picks and meaningful reach without overcomplicating operation. If you need a reliable, strong telehandler that’s ready to step into demanding roles and keep your crews moving, this unit checks the right boxes. The price point of $134,500 reflects a late-model machine that has been properly evaluated by a team that understands how heavy equipment is used, maintained, and judged in the real world.
