Manitou Americas is hosting live demonstrations for dealers and customers across the U.S. and Canada as part of its Red Tour. Bringing its biggest equipment and attachments to the customers, the company hopes to show the versatility of its machines, while giving operators and owners the opportunity to see first-hand the equipment in action and communicate with product experts.
Equipment on the tour includes the Manitous MHT series heavy telescopic handlers, the MRT series rotating telescopic handlers, and specialty attachments including forks, work access platform, a jib and winch, a large tire clamp and a CH10 pipe handler. The MRT 2540 rotating telescopic handler and the MHT 10225 heavy telescopic handler are highlighted.
"Attendees at the events are impressed by the size of the products and the versatility and maneuverability of the machines even with the attachments installed. The demonstrations clearly display the Manitou advantage of being a solutions provider - one machine excelling in multiple applications throughout the jobsites." said Lori Heidecker, Manitou Americas marketing director. "Safety and efficiency are major concerns with operations today. Manitou products are the perfect solution for many difficult tasks on jobsites or in quarries and saves operations lots of money."
Since the beginning of the year, Red Tours stops have included Elko, Nev.; Billings, Mont.; Indiana, Pennsylvania; and Asbury Park, N.J.. In October, the tour continues with two stops in Odessa, Texas, Oct. 7 and 8, and then moves to Quebec, Canada from Oct.15 through Oct. 22, 2013.
