JLG?s hits milestone on mast lift product

JLG Industries, Inc., an Oshkosh Corporation company announced that it has hit a new milestone in the number of Toucan 10E vertical mast units sold.

JLG has now sold over 1,000 mast lifts since the company introduced it to the market in 2009. The Toucan 10E, an electrically powered mast-style boom lift with a 10m working height and a go everywhere capability on finished surfaces.

?When we launched the Toucan 10E three years ago, we implemented extensive customer feedback and really engineered the product with the user in mind,? comments Robbert Monteban, Director of Marketing EAME. He continues, ?The JLG Toucan range is renowned for its performance, but through customer research we received a number of recommendations which guided development of the new Toucan 10E. The fact that since then over a thousand models have been produced and sold, is clear evidence of its success.?

In 2010 JLG announced the Toucan 8E as the latest addition to the electrically-driven range of the JLG Toucan series. Both models provide enhanced accessibility in many situations. Eight and ten meters working height are combined with up to a 3.10m outreach over obstacles and a 345 degree turntable to put more work areas within reach. This outreach is what makes the Toucan series so versatile. The jib that connects the platform to the mast provides a vertical movement, giving the Toucan series its up-and-over capabilities.
