JLG RT4394 RT Series Diesel Rough Terrain Scissor Lift – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The JLG RT4394 is a high-reach, ultra-wide Diesel Rough Terrain (RT) Scissor Lift designed for demanding construction, heavy installation, and large-scale industrial applications on outdoor job sites.1 The “RT” denotes Rough Terrain, “43” refers to its 43 ft platform height, and “94” refers to its ultra-wide 94-inch chassis. This machine utilizes a powerful diesel engine and standard oscillating axles for true 4WD performance, offering excellent traction and stability.2 The RT4394 is a superior workhorse when maximum platform size, high capacity, and high reach (49 ft working height) are needed on rugged terrain.
