The versatility of telehandlers
Why they are the ideal choice for every sector
Versatility as a strategic value in telehandlers
Versatility is not just a technical feature, but a real strategic value in the design and use of telehandlers. In a market that demands efficiency, speed of intervention and the ability to adapt to different operating contexts, having a machine capable of performing multiple functions is a fundamental competitive advantage.
Merlo telehandlers are a concrete response to this need, combining multiple functions, adaptability to the terrain and compatibility with numerous accessories in a single compact and high-performance machine.
What is meant by operational versatility
The versatility of a telehandler refers to its ability to adapt to a variety of uses, environments and working conditions. This flexibility is made possible by a combination of advanced mechanical, electronic and hydraulic configurations, which allow the machine to perform different roles efficiently and safely.
Merlo telehandlers are equipped with quick-release attachments that allow skips, forks, winches, man baskets and numerous other accessories to be easily replaced. This system allows the machine to be quickly transformed, optimising its use according to specific operational requirements.
Thanks to their compact design, all-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, Merlo telehandlers are perfectly suited to complex operating environments: confined spaces, uneven terrain, slopes or indoor environments. Agility is a key factor in ensuring efficiency and continuity of work in all conditions.
One machine, several applications
A telehandler can be used to lift heavy loads, transport them over short or medium distances and position them with precision even at high heights. In many cases, it replaces the combined work of forklifts, mobile cranes and loaders.
In contexts that require work at height, such as construction and industrial maintenance, telehandlersequipped with a man basket or winch are a safe and efficient solution. The millimetric control of the boom allows for precise positioning even at heights of several tens of metres.
Work in confined spaces or on rough terrain
Whether in vineyards, nurseries, historic town centres or construction sites with limited access, the compact size and manoeuvrability of Merlo telehandlers allow them to operate with ease even where other machines cannot access. Versions with active suspension offer additional stability on uneven or sloping ground.
Merlo telehandlers: a complete range for every need
Merlo offers a wide range of telehandlers, including:
- Panoramic: for construction and industrial applications
- Roto: with 360° rotating turret for maximum versatility
- Turbofarmer: specialised for the agricultural sector
- Multifarmer: combining the functions of a handler and a tractor.
Each line is designed to offer targeted solutions, high performance and maximum reliability.
The versatility of Merlo telehandlers is complemented by systems such as the ASCS (Adaptive Stability Control System), advanced digital interfaces, proportional controls and an inclinometer, which ensure constant control and operational safety at every stage of the work.
Electronic load management, real-time parameter display and active protection systems allow the operator to work safely at all times, avoiding instability or overload situations, with an intuitive and highly technological user experience.
Versatility applied to key sectors
Merlo telehandlers are essential for handling bales, feed, fertilisers and equipment in fields or on farms. The Turbofarmer and Multifarmer models offer high performance even in hilly or muddy terrain.
On construction sites, Merlo telehandlers are used to handle and lift building materials, position prefabricated structures and support operations at height. The Roto models are particularly suitable for the high flexibility required in vertical construction.
Merlo solutions for the forestry and logistics sector
Thanks to their robustness, traction on all types of terrain and compatibility with specific accessories, Merlo telehandlers are ideal for harvesting, moving and loading logs and wood, even in difficult environmental conditions.
Finally, in warehouses and logistics centres, the manoeuvrability and precision of Merlo telehandlers facilitate loading/unloading, high-level storage and efficient goods management. The compact and electric versions can also be used indoors.
Why choose the versatility of Merlo telehandlers
With a single machine capable of performing multiple functions, downtime, operating costs and maintenance requirements are reduced. Operational efficiency is significantly improved, especially in contexts where speed of intervention is essential.
Merlo allows configuring the telehandler that best suits your specific needs, offering customisable models, a wide range of accessories and solutions designed for different sectors. Each machine thus becomes a truly tailor-made work tool.
Merlo's design focuses on energy efficiency, reduced emissions and digital technologies that improve operational performance. Attention to sustainability is an integral part of the brand's identity, which is now more than ever oriented towards the future.
