Merlo launches Multi-Tool

Merlo is launching the Multifarmer Multi-Tool telehandler designed specifically for the Municipal and utility market at Saltex 2010 in Windsor, UK in early September.

The new models – a six and an 8.5 metre model, both with 3,000kgs lift capacity- are essentially an upgraded and rebranded version of the company’s Multifarmer which aims to combine the benefits and attributes of a farm tractor with a telehandler. The first thing that you notice is the new bright orange colour scheme, designed for maximum visibility on the road.

The integrated work platform

Overall width is 2,250 mm, height 2,495mm and length 4,900 mm on the smaller model and 5,130 on the larger. Gross Vehicle Weight is 6,550kgs on the six metre and just 100 kgs more on the 8.5 metre. The cab is a version of Merlo’s spacious - 995 mm wide – cab, providing plenty of space to turn and monitor implements while comfortable enough to ease the strains of an all day session.
