Manitou MRT 2550
A rotating telehandler that works like three machines
The Manitou MRT 2550 is a 360-degree rotating telehandler that lifts 5 tonnes and reaches 25 metres, acting as a telehandler, a small crane and an aerial platform.
+Strengths
- One machine replaces a telehandler, crane and platform
- Remote control option
- Recognises attachments automatically
−Watch-outs
- Higher price and more complex than fixed-boom telehandlers
- Needs outriggers for most lifts
Overview
The Manitou MRT 2550 sits in the middle of Manitou's rotating telehandler range. The slewing upper structure lets the operator place loads anywhere within a full circle without repositioning the machine.
Versatility
With forks, a winch, a jib or a work platform, an MRT can unload trucks, set roof trusses, lift steel and carry workers to height. Remote control helps operators position loads precisely from the best vantage point.
Who it suits
Contractors working on mid-rise buildings, industrial projects and infrastructure who want to reduce crane hire costs.
