Key Advantages and What They Mean on Your Jobsite

• Cummins diesel: The Cummins diesel engine is a cornerstone of reliability and serviceability. Contractors appreciate Cummins for strong torque delivery at low RPM, broad parts availability, and a well-established service network. In practice, that can mean confident picks, smooth throttle response while maneuvering, and easier support wherever your projects take you.
• 60" carriage: A 60-inch carriage increases load stability and fork spacing options, helping operators properly support wider pallets, materials, and irregular loads. On crowded sites, the added carriage width aids load control during traveling and staging, contributing to more precise placement and fewer re-handles.
• 60" pallet forks: Matching 60-inch forks pair with the wide carriage to provide the right reach beneath long or bulky pallets. This setup gives your crew more flexibility when handling pipe bundles, rebar, formwork, and material packs that would overwhelm shorter fork tines.
• Foam filled tires: Foam filled tires reduce downtime tied to flats and punctures. In rough terrain—where screws, nails, and debris are common—foam filling offers the stability and peace of mind that keep crews moving. You also benefit from consistent tire height and footprint compared to air-filled tires, supporting predictable handling and ride quality.
• Outriggers (availability to be confirmed): Many telehandler users value outriggers for added stability during certain lifts or when working on uneven terrain. If outriggers are important for your operation, let us know and we will confirm configuration details on NLEQ# 147912 and discuss options to suit your work profile.
• 12000 capacity (spec confirmation available): Buyers shopping the JLG 1255 often target the 12,000-lb capacity class for demanding material handling. If your work requires this performance benchmark, our team can confirm the exact rated capacity for this specific unit and ensure it aligns with your lifting plan.
• Lift height 55 ft (spec confirmation available): Similarly, many teams evaluate the 55-ft class for steel erection, multi-story framing, and high-bay industrial applications. If a 55-ft lift height is part of your requirement set, contact us to verify the precise rating for this machine and to discuss lift chart considerations.
• Brand new with full factory warranty (status to be confirmed): With a 2024 build and 0 hours, factory warranty eligibility may apply based on in-service date and program terms. If a brand new unit with full factory warranty is essential for your procurement plan, we will confirm the current warranty status and options for NLEQ# 147912.

Applications

Telehandlers in the JLG 1255 class are workhorses across general construction, commercial buildouts, industrial plants, oil and gas facilities, utility projects, and municipal work. The height and reach category—combined with durable foam filled tires and a wide 60" carriage—make this machine a productive choice for:

• Multistory framing and steel erection where material needs to be staged at height
• Masonry and cladding jobs requiring precise placement along building lines
• Concrete forming and rebar handling with long, heavy bundles
• Roofing and mechanical installations needing steady, controlled picks
• Industrial maintenance and plant turnarounds with varied load geometries
• Utility and site infrastructure projects across rough terrain

The Cummins diesel engine supports the torque and responsiveness needed when traversing uneven ground, climbing ramps, or maneuvering around tight staging areas. Meanwhile, the 60-inch pallet forks and wide carriage provide the leverage and load control to manage oversized pallets and materials more safely and efficiently.

Ownership Value

Choosing a zero-hour, current-year JLG 1255 telehandler offers tangible ownership advantages. First, you set the maintenance standard from day one, establishing a proactive service routine that can maximize uptime. Second, the Cummins diesel reputation for durability can reduce lifecycle operating costs through predictable parts availability and established service practices. Third, foam filled tires mitigate flat-related downtime, protecting your schedule and budget when the jobsite throws the unexpected at your fleet. Finally, JLG’s support ecosystem and market recognition help underpin residual value—an important consideration for fleet managers focused on total cost of ownership.
