JLG introduces first electric telehandler
02 October 2024
JLG has unveiled a compact electric telehandler for the North American market.
The battery-powered E313 is designed for all-terrain and off-road use, as well as zero-emission and low noise operation for moving materials around indoor construction, urban, residential and municipal projects.
It follows JLG parent company Oshkosh’s acquisition in September of Spain-based Ausa, which manufactures compact telehandlers, dumpers and forklifts.
“As job sites evolve, machines need to evolve with them,” said John Boehme, JLG’s senior product manager for telehandlers. “Our new E313 electric-powered telehandler transforms how work is done in emission-free spaces and noise-sensitive environments by delivering a quieter, more efficient working experience.”
With a 3,500 lb (1,587.57 kg) maximum lift capacity, a 13 ft 1 in (3.99 m) maximum lift height, 5 ft 8 in (1.73 m) forward reach and 9.3 mph (14.97 km/h) travel speed, JLG said the eletric ultra-compact unit does not sacrifice performance for loading and unloading trucks and flatbeds, moving materials around or accessing single-story buildings.
E313 key features:
- 6-kW/h electrical system with six maintenance-free 48V lithium-ion batteries.
- Up to four hours of continuous operation, or extended intermittent use.
- Dual on-board battery chargers with 110V and 220V charging adapters.
- Efficient electric drive motors, eliminating the need for fuel or oil.
- Two-speed electric transmission with high-speed, two-wheel drive and low-speed, four-wheel drive.
- Two-wheel rear pivot power steering.
- Load Stability Indication (LSI) system.
- Seatbelt engagement and operator presence system.
The new telehandler also comes standard with a universal skid-steer coupler system, allowing it to attach to various existing telehandler and skid-steer loader attachments, including carriages, forks and buckets. In addition it has an integrated hitch for hauling tools around the job.
It comes standard with JLG’s ClearSky Smart Fleet management system, allowing for true two-way fleet interactivity.
