Selected Lifting Equipment and Components
Merlo Roto 70.24SPLUSEE4
The Merlo Roto 70.24SPLUSEE4 is a high-capacity rotating telehandler designed for demanding construction and industrial applications. With a maximum load capacity of 15,500 pounds and a reach of 79 feet 4 inches, it provides the strength and versatility needed for complex lifting tasks.
The machine features 360-degree continuous rotation and a 20-degree tilting cab, allowing operators to adjust positioning with precision. Its adaptive stability control system dynamically manages boom and turret movements, auxiliary limits and hydraulic functions across 27 possible configurations. Large windows, rear cameras and a low-mounted boom enhance visibility for improved jobsite awareness.
Compatible with a range of Merlo attachments, including work platforms, jibs with a winch and floating forks, the Roto 70.24 adapts to multiple tasks. Powered by a 170-horsepower engine, it is built for efficiency and performance in challenging environments. Designed with operator comfort in mind, the tilting cab reduces strain during extended use, supporting productivity and control.

JCB 512-83R
The JCB 512-83R rotating telehandler is designed for versatility and lifting performance in construction, industrial and material handling sectors. It offers a 12,000-pound maximum lift capacity and an 83-foot maximum lift height, making it suitable for high-reach tasks that require stability and maneuverability.
The telehandler is built for durability with a hardened slew ring, reinforced boom and heavy-duty chassis to ensure reliability in tough working conditions. Its 360-degree rotating capability reduces repositioning, improving efficiency, while standard hydraulic stabilizers enhance stability during elevated lifts.
For operator comfort, the machine features an air-conditioned cab, ergonomic controls and a fully adjustable air suspension seat. The AUTEC remote control system enables precise operation from a distance, improving safety and productivity. Additional safety features include LED lighting, front and rear cameras and a white noise reverse alarm to increase visibility on the jobsite.

Manitou MRT 2260 Vision +
Manitou’ s MRT 2260 Vision + is a powerful, all-terrain rotating telescopic handler designed for versatility. It functions as both a material handler and an aerial work platform, accommodating various attachments such as forks, work platforms and jib and winch systems. With 360-degree turret rotation, most operations can be executed without repositioning the machine. Additionally, it features a user-friendly remote control, allowing operators to manipulate materials directly from the attachment position rather than from the cab.
Manitou has also introduced an electrified version, the MRT 2260e Vision +, reinforcing its commitment to reducing the TCO while enhancing serviceability and jobsite conditions. The electric model retains the performance and specifications of the diesel version while significantly lowering emissions and reducing noise. These improvements make it ideal for indoor and confined work environments where air quality and sound levels are critical considerations.
Telehandlers are well-suited for electrification due to their intermittent usage patterns, fast charging capabilities and the benefits of reduced noise for better verbal communication on the jobsite. Eliminating diesel engine maintenance and fuel costs leads to substantial long-term savings, making the MRT 2260e Vision + a costeffective and environmentally friendly solution for material handling applications. www. manitou. com
