This JLG 1255 is a telehandler — also commonly referred to as a reach forklift or telescopic handler — a type of lifting and material-handling machine used across construction, industrial, and agricultural worksites to place loads at height and reach where conventional forklifts cannot. JLG is a well-established American manufacturer known for its broad range of aerial work platforms and telehandlers, serving construction, infrastructure, and industrial markets worldwide.
This 2015 machine is offered used from Illinois, USA, and is priced at $78,950. It is equipped with a 12,000-pound lift capacity and a maximum lift height of 55 feet, making it well suited to demanding multi-story construction and heavy material placement tasks. The four-wheel-drive, four-wheel-steer, four-wheel-brake configuration — described as 4x4x4 — gives the machine strong traction, tight turning capability, and responsive control across rough or uneven ground.
Power comes from a Cummins diesel engine, a widely respected choice for heavy equipment applications known for its reliability and serviceability. The machine rides on solid pneumatic tires, which offer puncture resistance while maintaining a degree of cushioning over irregular surfaces. An enclosed cab fitted with heat provides the operator with a sheltered working environment suitable for year-round use.
Outriggers and stabilizers are fitted, allowing the machine to be firmly planted and leveled before lifting operations begin. Hydraulic leveling further supports safe and precise load handling on sloped or uneven terrain. Forks are included as shown in the listing photographs.
