Features:

●

Intuitive control layout

enables efficient and comfort-

able operation.

●

Hydraulic system

enables the use of work tools requir-

ing both intermittent and continuous auxiliary hydrau-

lic flows.

●

Range of lift heights and load capacities

from 2500 kg

(5500 lb) to 5443 kg (12,000 lb) capacity and 5.6 m

(18'4") to 17.3 m (56'9") lift height.

●

Cat

Telehandlers offer extended reach

to easily enable

material to be placed over onsite obstacles.

●

Three steering modes and tight turning circles

allow

simplified movement onsite and therefore increased

productivity.

●

Cat Telehandlers have engine options

which either meet

U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final/EU Stage IV/Japan 2014 (Tier 4

Final) emission standards, Tier 4 Interim/EUStage IIIB/

Japan 2011 (Tier 4 Interim) equivalent emission stan-

dards, or Tier 3/Stage IIIA/Japan 2006 (Tier 3) equiva-

lent emission standards.

●

Three transmissions options are available on telehandlers

The TH255 is fitted with a hydrostatic transmission.

The TL and TH range are fitted with 4 speed power-

shift transmissions. The high horsepower TH range is

fitted with 6 speed powershift transmissions..

●

Three types of quick couplers are offered on the various

telehandler models

. The TH255 is fitted with a univer-

sal skid steer loader style coupler enabling the use of

many SSL work tools. The TL and TH lines of telehan-

dlers offer hydraulic and manual style IT interface

couplers which provide excellent work tool compatibil-

ity with older models of telehandlers and other prod-

ucts (for example Backhoe Loaders and Small Wheel

Loaders).

●

Three auxiliary hydraulic options

are available: one

auxiliary hydraulic service, two auxiliary hydraulic ser-

vices and continuous hydraulic flow. These options

allow maximum work tool utilization.

●

Daily maintenance

consists of only a walkaround

inspection, all major components and service points

are located at ground level, providing excellent ease of

service.
