JLG extends wire rope and sheave replacement interval

“Wire rope replacement is one of the largest costs a fleet owner will incur over the life of a boom lift,” said Paul Kreutzwiser, JLG Industries global category director for aerial work platforms. “Although highly variable, typical wire rope replacement jobs can cost fleet owners thousands of dollars per job. By increasing the length of the replacement interval, we are reducing maintenance costs and contributing to a lower total cost of ownership.”

These longer replacement intervals can also increase rental income for customers by keeping booms in service for longer periods of time over the life of the machine. Additionally, customers should realize increased resale values attributed to these extended intervals.
