Bobcat improves telescopic handler range

Bobcat has added new features to all twelve telehandler models with lift heights from 5.2 to 17.4 metres. Powered by Tier III diesel engines, one of the features is an 8 dBA reduction in operating noise; another is a new drive controller. The throttle cable design has also been modified and a new rear boom design eliminating any hose interference. Other modifications include changes to the hydraulic couplers on the booms where the spacing has been widened make connection and disconnection of attachments easier.

The Aggravating Movement Arrestor (AMA) system - designed to prevent dangerous movements of the boom during operation - is standard on all models.

The improved Bobcat range of telehandlers can be distinguished from previous versions by a new colour scheme a white boom and orange counterweight – the same as designs used on the other products in the Bobcat range.
