JLG Industries, Inc., an Oshkosh Corporation company [NYSE: OSK] and a leading manufacturer of aerial work platforms and telescopic material handlers, announced that its innovative new super-compact 2505 Telehandler, the 2.5t-capacity model, was judged as one of the ‘best new products’ when it was unveiled in January at the LAMMA agricultural equipment show in Newark (Nottingham), UK.

The new machine which weighs less than 5t, yet has a maximum lift capacity of 2.5t, and lift height of 5.6m. Its major features are the compact packaging, with an overall width of 1.8m and height of only 1.9m and the spacious cabin, which contributed to its accreditation. The machine is perfectly fitted for work in extremely confined spaces, such as inside poultry sheds and low barns for farmers, and in busy distribution yards in the professional building materials and construction industry.
