Boom lift innovations
MEC introduces its M34-J telescopic boom.
MEC Aerial Work Platforms engineers were challenged to develop a better value solution for the thousands of construction jobs that are under 40 feet. The 34-J is enough machine to get the job done, but changes the paradigm on ROI for lower height projects. The smallest telescopic booms available in today’s market offer 46 feet of working height, which is often more machine than is necessary for the job. With that, MEC introduces the new 34-J diesel telescopic boom as a better value solution for construction applications up to 40 feet.

The 34-J gives 40 feet of working height with standard 5-foot jib for 135-degree range of motion. It is compact and lightweight at just 8,000 pounds without compromising construction-grade durability.
The 34-J can be towed with a full size truck, or three units could fit on a flatbed truck for the lowest delivery cost. It also features a standard 72-inch platform including three-sided entry with a swing gate. Like all MEC booms, the 34-J has ergonomic platform controls with the optional Proactive Platform Safety System (PPSS) and is designed without a footswitch, giving the operator increased visibility and mobility in the platform. It has powerful four-wheel drive and positive traction with an oscillating front axle – a true rough terrain construction boom.
