JLG RT5394

The JLG RT5394 Engine Powered Rough Terrain Scissor Lift stands as the biggest scissor lift in JLG’s RT Series. It offers outstanding reach and productivity for heavy-duty outdoor applications such as construction, industrial maintenance, roofing, and large-scale installations on uneven ground. Its massive platform, high capacity, and drive-at-height capability (up to 32 ft / 9.75 m) minimize downtime by allowing operators to reposition without lowering the platform.
