Gehl Telehandlers Add Joystick Control

摘要

The Gehl DL Gen:3 Series of telehandlers includes four models, featuring what the company calls an "all-in-one joystick," allowing operators to control machines with one hand. The joystick controls boom extension and retraction, attachment tilt, auxiliary hydraulics, and travel forward and reverse. The four models-the DL11-44 GEN:3, DL11-55 GEN:3, DL12-40 GEN:3, and DL12-55 GEN:3-have maximum lift capacities from 11,000 to 12,000 pounds and maximum lift heights from 40 feet four inches to 55 feet five inches. Manitou Group's product manager of telescopic handlers, Steve Kiskunas, said the all-in-one joystick will greatly improve efficiency and precision.
