Each Product Roundup offers highlights on a specific type of equipment for the aerial lift and material handling industry. These manufacturers have provided details on the model of their choosing.

JLG X660SJ

The X660SJ is JLG’ s first straight-jib compact crawler boom lift, offering a platform height of 65 feet, 7 inches, a capacity of 500 pounds for up to two workers, and 39 feet of horizontal reach. Designed for indoor and outdoor applications, it can be used for maintenance, electrical, HVAC, painting, arboriculture, and window washing.

The X660SJ has a 2-foot, 11-inch profile, weighs less than 7,400 pounds, and offers 40 % gradeability. Its crawlermounted design allows it to navigate slopes and pass through gates and standard doorways. Envelope tracking operation lets operators raise or lower the boom while telescoping in or out, keeping the platform on a path perpendicular to the ground. Multiple-position, one-touch self-leveling outriggers accommodate tight work areas.

The lift comes standard with a Kubota diesel engine. Optional power sources include a lithium-ion battery with an AC drive system and a bi-energy configuration that combines a lithium-ion battery pack with a diesel engine. All three power configurations come standard with fully synthetic biodegradable hydraulic fluid.

Standard equipment includes forklift pockets for transportation, air, water, and power lines to the platform, non-marking tracks, integrated front and rear LED lights, and SkyGuard SkyLine enhanced control panel protection. The X660SJ also uses an enclosed powertrack design to help protect machine components from debris.

Altec TC79AJ

At only 6,592 pounds and just under 2.9 feet wide in its smallest configuration, the new TC79AJ offers capability in a lightweight package. It’ s ideal for tree care and a variety of other work applications, providing a working height of nearly 79 feet and side reach of 41.7 feet. The TC79AJ’ s powerful track drive with a hydraulic braking system is hydraulically height- and width-adjustable. The white non-marking rubber tracks have less tread depth, enabling smooth traveling and precise maneuvering via a sensitive remote control.

The TC79AJ also features electrohydraulic stabilization with automatic leveling and a ground pressure sensor system, a variable stabilizer system, and steel stabilizer pads. Its telescopic lower and upper boom can also be controlled via radio remote, and a coming home function enables automatic return of the boom into transport position. The TC79AJ’ s jib is movable by 165 degrees, and the platform rotates 180 degrees for additional flexibility.

Every new Altec Teupen backyard lift, including the TC79AJ, now comes backed by a two-year warranty. Altec provides resources to manage and maintain fleets with access to financing, service, rentals, tools and accessories, industry-leading training, and more.
