Product Overview – SJ1256 THS Telehandler

With a 12,000 lbs (5,443 kg) maximum lift capacity and 56’ 3” (17.14 m) lift height, it provides exceptional load handling and stability.

Powered by a 107 hp / 320 lb-ft Deutz TCD 3.6L Tier 4 Final engine, the SJ1256 THS features a SMARTORQUE™ system for high performance without the need for DPF or DEF, along with a 3-speed Dana powershift transmission and Dana axles for durability.
