Comfort
With the fine control function, movements in any area can
be performed accurately and are controlled with precision
at all times independently of the load. Thanks to the spa-
cious and ergonomic cab, fatigue-free and focused work
is possible throughout the day. Large windows and the
low pivot point guarantee best view to the load and sur-
rounding area. The noise level and dust inside the cab are
kept noticeably low thanks to the pressurised cab system.
Economy
The stepless control and fine response of the hydrostatic
travel drive facilitate jolt-free driving without gear changes
across the whole speed range. The trusted interplay
between travel drive, working hydraulics and diesel engine
make it possible to reduce fuel consumption.
Performance
All movements of the working hydraulics as well as the
travel direction can be controlled conveniently via the
multifunction joystick. In this way, the left hand can
always stay on the steering wheel for more safety.
Depending on the degree the joystick is moved, the speed
of the diesel engine is automatically adjusted and, with it,
the speed of the working hydraulics. The smallest turning
circle in its class enables trouble-free manoeuvring even
in tight conditions.
Reliability
A decisive factor is the cleverly conceived reliable design
of the telescopic handler, developed especially for tim-
ber handling. Two lift cylinders guarantee high break-out
forces and low distortion of the arm. The low pivot point
and the long wheelbase provide a well-balanced centre of
gravity and maximum stability during driving.
