Why Choose Merlo?

Telescoping material handlers are powerful, adaptable, and versatile; these machines are becoming more common on job sites and yards with every passing day. Their adaptability with numerous attachments such as forks, man baskets, buckets, fly-jibs, winches, and more, enable them to replace multiple units which allows contractors to reduce fleet size and increase efficiency and utilization.

Merlo stands out as the leader in the field having invented the rotating telehandlers in 1990, and having many other firsts in the industry such as moving away from rear mounted engines to side mounted engines, improving cooling and serviceability.

Telehandlers

CAPACITY

The U.S. market consists of 20 different models with lift capacities ranging between 19 feet and 96 feet with load capacities between 5,500 lbs. to 26,500 lbs. Merlo offers a wide variety of models with both a fixed and rotating chassis.

HYDRAULIC & ELECTRONICS IN THE BOOM

All of the electronic cables & hydraulic hoses are housed inside of the boom and are protected from accidental damage and environmental conditions.

CYCLE SPEEDS

Merlo has load sensing hydraulics which improve operational precision and productivity on the job site.

BOOM DESIGN

Merlo's Heavy Duty boom is characterized by having almost no flex. Its buttonhole de-sign and large overlapping of sections allow the boom to bend upwards when totally extended, not the opposite.

CAB DESIGN

Merlo has the largest cab in its class (3'-3" wide) with 360º visibility and comes standard with Heat/AC. The operator friendly design features pneumatic suspension seats, upgraded soundproof material, and easy to reach, intuitive and precise controls.

SAFETY

Merlo's MERlin (Merlo Local Interactive Network) provides a completely new way to automat-ically manage all operating parameters and safety functions; the MCSS (MERlin Continuous Slew Safe-ty) system manages the load diagram to suit stabilizer positions chosen by the operator, in real time (66 times a second), ensuring safe and efficient operation.

BUILD

Merlo features a solid steel bar around the entire machine "Ring of Steel", eliminating the need for a counterweight and resulting in increased stability, protection, and a more robust chassis.
