Manitou to demo specialty telescopic handlers and attachments at CONEXPO

Manitou will provide CONEXPO-CON/AGG attendees the opportunity to see and experience revolutionary telescopic handling equipment and attachments. The MRT 2150 rotating telescopic handler with 360 degree continuous rotation will be equipped with an extendable 13’ work platform that can accommodate loads up to 1,320 lbs. (600 kg) with 180 degree swing capability. A 660 lbs. (300 kg) winch is integrated within the platform. This equipment setup is ideal for industrial maintenance, panel and glass installers, general contractors and masons.

The MHT 10130 heavy capacity telescopic handler with a maximum lifting capacity of 28,000 lbs. (13 000 kg) will be equipped with a pipe grapple attachment with 94” (2400 mm) forks. With a maximum lift height of 36’6” (9.62 m) this equipment set up is ideal for oil and gas applications. Both the MRT Series rotating telescopic handlers and MHT series heavy capacity telescopic handlers come standard with remote operation, allowing operators to control engine functions, boom extension and attachment operation from outside the cab. The equipment demos will showcase this remote operation and will occur consistently throughout the CONEXPO show. "Manitou welcomes you to discover the enhanced versatility of the telehandler at the 2017 CONEXPO/CON-AGG show, » said Chris Mathijs, Director of Sales & Marketing Manitou for North America.
