Will the floor hold it?

Machine plus platform load against your slab rating, using the JLG 450AJ’s published floor pressure where listed.

Total weight–
Average pressure–over the footprint
Published floor pressure–from the spec sheet, when listed
Heaviest wheel–published max wheel load

Average pressure spreads the total weight over the footprint. Real loads concentrate under the wheels, so slabs can fail locally even when the average looks fine. Ask a structural engineer before working on suspended slabs, mezzanines or older floors.
