Unmatched Technology 

Merlo’s iconic “ROTO Range” allows the machine to rotate a full 360° without having to reposition the unit. Completing projects has never been as quick and efficient. It also features a 20-degree tilt cab designed to give the operator a continuous view of the boom and its load.
 

Advanced Safety with ASCS

The ASCS safety system displays the telehandler’s parameters in real-time, including the stabilizer position, boom extension angle, turret position, carriage rotation, load position and weight. The unit is built with a steel safety belt around the cabin, 360-degree visibility and Dynamic Load Control to ensure maximum security. 
 

High-Performance Power and Efficiency with EPD

The machine’s perfect weight distribution, optimal telescopic lifting boom and sliding mechanism designs have allowed for a considerable increase in performance while the wireless control unit allows for all the necessary movements throughout different applications. Equipped with Merlo’s Eco Power Drive (EPD) technology, it allows for a reduction in fuel consumption of up to 18%.
 

Independent Stabilizers

The stabilizers on the Roto 70.24 S Plus are structured to facilitate rapid and safe deployment and are independently controlled allowing you to level the unit as required in all situations and even on the most uneven terrains.
