What affects what your telehandler is worth
Beyond year, make and model, these are the things buyers look at on a used telehandler.
Lift capacity and height
Rated capacity and maximum lift height decide which jobsites can use it.
Boom condition
Boom wear pads, hoses and any extension play show how hard the machine has worked.
Attachments
Carriage, forks, buckets and a work platform add value.
Hours, tires and frame leveling
Hours set the baseline; frame leveling and good tires add to it.
How many hours is a lot on a used telehandler?
Telehandler
Working life of about 5,000–10,000 hours (JLG product manager via Equipment World: engine rebuild at about 5,000 hrs in harsh work, 7,000-10,000 in normal work). Typical use: 500–1,000 hours a year.
- Tires are usually replaced at about 2,000 hours. (Equipment World)
- In harsh work an engine rebuild may be due after 5,000 hours; normal work stretches that to 7,000-10,000. (Equipment World)
