JLG Previews X1000AJ Compact Crawler Boom

JLG Industries, Inc.today previewed the X1000AJ Compact Crawler Boom (CCB) at The Rental Show booth #4413. The X1000AJ provides a work envelope of 56 ft. up and over and 54 ft. of horizontal outreach, plus a 105-ft. work height. It also boasts a 500-lb. unrestricted platform capacity.

The X1000’s boom includes a new articulated column design, giving operators the ability to work flush with the surface of a structure. Smart technology improves boom functionality by enabling multiple simultaneous movements, introducing a go-home function and by delivering 90° +/- jib movement for added reach. The machine also features below-grade capabilities for those who need to complete work both above and below ground level.  

A compact footprint allows the lift to fit through a standard double doorway for easy movement between indoor and outdoor applications. Non-marking tracks, which retract, along with a patented platform disconnect system, make it easy to maneuver this machine through tight spaces. The X1000AJ is less than 22 ft ft. long and under 20 ft. long when the platform is removed.

One-touch self-leveling outriggers stabilize and level the machine on slopes up to 16°. Stability is further enhanced by large, Teflon-coated outrigger pads, while standard forklift pockets and lift hooks allow for easy loading and unloading. SkyGuard enhanced control panel protection comes standard. The interactive LCD display communicates key operator information.

An advanced technology, 76 Volt lithium-ion system is available to provide clean, quiet operation and performance. A Kubota diesel power source is also available.
