Typical compact telehandler applications
Sub-2 m height clears suspended ceilings and ramp headroom. Ideal for M&E distribution in underground car parks.
Sub-2 m width passes through standard pedestrian gates on urban housing sites without removing fencing.
Low-profile cab and tight turning circle for bale stacking and feed distribution inside cattle sheds.
Low operating weight (< 5 t) stays within suspended-slab load limits; height clears deck beams.
Minimal ground pressure and compact footprint for working inside listed buildings and courtyards.
Crane-lifted to roof level; operates within plant enclosures where full-size machines cannot access.
