JLG’s sheet material handler for telehandlers.

JLG Industries, Inc. has added a new sheet material handler to its line of telehandler attachments. The coupler-mounted attachment can lift up to 3,000 pounds with a 72-inch maximum fork spread, allowing for heavy and wide materials to be delivered at height.

“JLG continues to expand the versatility of its telehandlers with this new sheet material handler attachment,” said John Boehme, senior product manager, JLG. “Operators can confidently lift and place a variety of materials, ensuring they are delivered conveniently and efficiently to the desired location.”

The attachment can be used for picking and placing sheetrock, drywall, plywood, green board and other sheet materials. The 100-degree horizonal tilt ensures accurate placement at the desired location. The attachment can handle a maximum width load of 22 inches and provides a 180-degree swing capability.

The JLG sheet material handler attachment is compatible with JLG telehandler models 742, 943, 1043, 1055 and 1255. This attachment requires an auxiliary electrics option to operate.
