The JLG X17J Plus Diesel spider lift delivers a 17m working height and 7.65m outreach in a compact, low-profile crawler frame. With bi-energy power (diesel + 240V electric motor) and a stowed width of 0.79m, it’s ideal for confined indoor and rugged outdoor access.
The JLG X17J Plus Diesel is a compact, tracked spider lift engineered for access in tight or restricted areas. With a 16.96 metre working height and a 7.65 metre outreach, this Hinowa-built machine combines full proportional control, SkyGuard® safety, and a 1.24 metre articulating jib for precise operation.
Bi-energy functionality allows the machine to run on a 10 hp Hatz diesel engine or switch to the 230V electric motor for zero-emission work indoors. Its retractable undercarriage allows entry through standard doorways, while non-marking tracks and low ground pressure make it safe for sensitive flooring.
This lift is supported by JLG’s national service network and comes with Australia-wide parts availability. A full electric model with a lithium battery is also available for environmentally restricted zones.
