LGMG announced the introduction of its new H1256 telehandler, expanding its lineup for construction, industrial and infrastructure applications. The high-capacity model is designed for rental fleet use and demanding jobsite conditions.

The H1256 offers a 12,000 lb lifting capacity, a maximum lift height of 56’1” and 42’ of outreach. According to LGMG, the model is suited for commercial construction, infrastructure projects and industrial facilities.

“The H1256 was developed with rental fleet realities in mind, offering versatility on jobsites, where loads are becoming heavier and productivity expectations are higher,” said Russell Durand, regional sales manager at LGMG.

Designed for Jobsite Durability

Built for rough terrain applications, the H1256 features Dana limited-slip axles for performance on uneven terrain. It is powered by a 120 hp Cummins engine and has a 15.5 mph travel speed to support movement across larger jobsites.

Three steering modes, including four-wheel and crab steer, are designed to enhance maneuverability in tight areas. The machine incorporates a rugged design with additional steel components, including a standard steel engine cover, to withstand daily use.

“The H1256 combines strong lift capacity with the power and jobsite speed customers want. On large, demanding projects, that additional horsepower translates into faster cycle times, more trips per day and real productivity gains for both operators and fleet owners,” Durand said.

The telehandler includes an ergonomic cab with intuitive controls, multiple load chart placements and a 9” display that provides engine and machine information to assist with troubleshooting and service.

Warranty and Support

LGMG telehandlers are supported by a three-year, 3,000-hour warranty, subject to terms and conditions.

“We listen closely to our rental partners, and long-term support is a core part of how we serve this market,” Durand said. “Warranties don’t mean much unless you have the structure to back them. We have a nationwide team of technicians ready to provide assistance.”
