Product Roundup: Rotating Telehandlers

JLG R11100

The JLG R11100 rotating telehandler is a high-capacity lifting solution designed for complex jobsite requirements. With a 13,000-pound load capacity and a maximum reach height of 97 feet, it provides versatile performance across various applications. Its 360-degree continuous rotation allows for precise horizontal and vertical material placement, particularly in areas where traditional telehandlers have limited maneuverability.

Equipped with front and rear scissor-style outriggers and automatic leveling jacks, the R11100 can stabilize itself on uneven terrain, compensating up to six degrees. It functions as a traditional telehandler, a mobile elevating work platform when fitted with a platform attachment and a rough-terrain crane when using a truss boom and winch.

A 168-horsepower fluid power technology diesel engine powers the machine, paired with a 2-speed hydrostatic transmission for smoother operation. Standard foam-filled tires enhance durability on rugged surfaces. With 13 available attachments, including work platforms, crane jibs and rotating carriages, the R11100 adapts to a range of lifting and material handling tasks.

Dieci Pegasus 60.40 

The Pegasus 60.40 is a three-in-one telehandler with an operational coverage of more than 21,500 square feet and a lifting height of up to 131 feet. With a capacity of 13,200 pounds, it is designed for advanced performance in lifting and handling operations in the construction industry. Its technology enhances ease of use, efficiency, comfort and safety.

New management software, developed by Dieci specialists, brings the machine’s electronics to automotive standards. The intuitive controls and intelligent boom movement improve precision, safety and control.

The redesigned cab provides operators with essential functional controls, including dual 4.3-inch and 12-inch displays for digital control management, an additional joystick for outrigger movement and an “equipment quick coupling” control on the joystick. A range of attachments and a new remote control with a display allow the machine to be operated from the ground or the basket.

The Pegasus 60.40 functions as a telehandler, aerial platform and crane, offering versatility across multiple jobsite applications.

Magni RTH 22.120

The Magni RTH 22.120 rotating telehandler is designed for heavy-duty lifting and material handling in construction and industrial applications. With a maximum lift capacity of 22,700 pounds and a lifting height of 120 feet 5 inches, it provides stability and precision in demanding environments.

The machine features Magni’s patented outrigger system, which stabilizes the telehandler on various terrains and in confined spaces. An automatic leveling function, accessible through the digital display, dynamically adjusts the load chart based on outrigger configuration. This enhances safety and reduces setup time compared to conventional cranes.

Equipped with a digital load moment indicator, the RTH 22.120 uses radio frequency identification (RFID)-tagged attachments to update load charts in real time. Load-limiting technology prevents operators from exceeding safe operating limits. These safety features, along with its reinforced structure, ensure secure and efficient operation.

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 cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for material handling applications.
