About the JLG 450AJ

The 450AJ is the smallest machine in the fleet and often the most useful one. The articulating boom and jib let the operator reach over parapets, around ductwork and into bays that a telescopic boom cannot reach. Four-wheel drive and oscillating axles handle rough ground on a site that is still being graded. At about 23 feet long when stowed it fits through most site gates and onto a standard tilt trailer.

Typical applications

Interior and exterior commercial construction
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing rough-in at height
Facade, glazing and signage work
Warehouse and facility maintenance

Specifications are nominal manufacturer figures and vary by model year and configuration. The capacity placard on the machine governs. Operators must be trained and qualified for aerial work platforms under OSHA 29 CFR 1926.453 and ANSI A92.
