JLG 4009PS Specifications

Basic Information

The JLG 4009PS telehandler is a robust, mid-capacity rough-terrain material-handling machine engineered to deliver reliable lifting performance and precise maneuverability in demanding construction, industrial, agricultural, and infrastructure environments. With a rated lifting capacity of 4,000 kg and a maximum lift height of 9.0 metres, the 4009PS is designed as a versatile solution for sites requiring steady power, efficient hydraulic function, and terrain adaptability.

It offers strong breakout force, load stability at height, compact operating dimensions, and smooth multi-mode steering, allowing operators to handle palletized loads, bulk material, structural components, and general site materials with accuracy.

The Perkins 1104D-44T diesel engine provides dependable torque and efficient fuel use, supporting both hydraulic and travel demands. The machine’s load-sensing hydraulic system delivers proportional control for lift, extend, crowd, and auxiliary functions, while the robust chassis and four-wheel drive arrangement ensure consistent traction on uneven or loose surfaces.

The Clear View cab, overload warning system, and mechanical quick-switch coupler enhance operator confidence, make attachment changes efficient, and reduce downtime. Designed for rental fleets, contractors, and agricultural operators, the 4009PS balances simplicity, serviceability, and performance in a compact, well-engineered telehandler platform.

Engine Specs

The 4009PS is powered by the Perkins 1104D-44T, a four-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine built for durability and heavy-duty performance. The engine is optimized for low-to-mid-range torque, allowing the telehandler to maintain stable lifting and travel characteristics even under high load.

Engine specifications:
- Engine model: Perkins 1104D-44T
- Power output: 74.5 kW at 2200 rpm
- Displacement: 4.4 L
- Turbocharged, water-cooled
- Emissions: EPA Tier 3, EEC Stage IIIA compliant
- Fuel tank capacity: 140 L (36.9 gal)
- Engine oil capacity: 7.9 L (2.1 gal)
- Coolant capacity: 19.7 L (5.2 gal)

The engine’s robust construction, efficient combustion design, and electronic management provide smooth operation with reduced fuel consumption. Maintenance tasks include regular oil and filter replacement, monitoring coolant condition, servicing the air-filtration system, and ensuring clean fuel delivery.

Drive Train

The JLG 4009PS uses a powershift transmission engineered for controlled shifting and excellent travel characteristics.

Transmission
- Transmission type: Powershift
- Gearing: 4 forward and 3 reverse gears (optional 3 forward / 3 reverse)
- Drive type: Full-time 4x4

Powershift operation allows smooth directional changes under load and supports appropriate speed ranges for material placement, site navigation, and grade climbing.

Axles
- Four-wheel drive with planetary reduction axles
- Rear axle oscillation to maintain ground contact
- Designed for rough-terrain traction and stability

Brakes
- Service brakes: wet multi-disc configuration
- Resistant to contamination and heat
- Provides long service intervals with minimal adjustment

The brake system ensures predictable stopping performance in environments with mud, dust, or debris.

Electrical System

The electrical system is designed to support safe machine operation, provide operator feedback, and withstand harsh environments. Weather-sealed connectors, reinforced harnesses, and protected routing improve durability.

Electrical features include:
- Audio-visual overload indicator
- Clear View cab instrumentation
- Fuel, temperature, and oil-pressure indicators
- Warning lights for safety-critical functions
- Optional front- and rear-mounted work lights

Wheels and Tires

Chassis and Drive
- Structural steel chassis with high torsional rigidity
- Four-wheel drive (4x4)
- Designed for stability during elevated lifting

Tyres
- Industrial pneumatic tyres sized for rough-terrain operation
- Provide traction, shock absorption, and consistent load support

Steering modes:
- Coordinated (4-wheel steering)
- Front-wheel steering
- Crab steering

These modes allow the telehandler to maneuver efficiently in job-site alleys, building interiors, agricultural sheds, and uneven terrain.

Hydraulic System

Hydraulic system specifications:
- Pump type: Load-sensing hydraulic pump
- Maximum flow: 132 L/min (34.8 gpm)
- Hydraulic reservoir: 160 L (42.2 gal)

The system includes circuits for lift, telescope, tilt/crowd, and auxiliary attachment operation. Load-sensing technology ensures efficient power use and smooth hydraulic control under varying loads.

Service Refill Capacities

- Diesel fuel: 140 L (36.9 gal)
- Engine oil: 7.9 L (2.1 gal)
- Hydraulic oil: 160 L (42.2 gal)
- Coolant: 19.7 L (5.2 gal)
