Manitou held a press conference with the key new product launch being the North American version of its six metre/2,500kg MT625 compact telehandler as the MTA 519 - 5,000 lbs/19ft. The main changes include US style joystick controls and the use of a skid steer type fork carriage. The electric version of the machine will be available in the USA later this year.
