Manitou hosted a flashy presentation this evening to announce several all new product ranges.
The first two products were new MT compact telehandlers - the seven metre/3,000kg MT 730H and nine metre/3,000kg MT 930H. Both are said to have an overall width of two metres and an overall height of just under two metres. They come with a number of new attachments including a fold back fork to reduce the overall length of the machine for easy transport.
The units are said to be light enough for a trailer and feature 350mm of ground clearance, hydrostatic transmissions, Stage V diesels, a new cab with improved visibility including large information screen, a sensor type joystick controller, auto stop, auto parking brake, longer service intervals and easy oil sampling.
