Pettibone Adds T1246X to Traverse Telehandler Lineup

摘要

The Traverse T1246X telehandler is the third Traverse model to join Pettibone's X Series lineup. Traverse models feature a traversing boom carriage with capability to move loads by traveling horizontally. This, the company says, allows operators to safely place loads at full lift height without having to coordinate multiple boom functions. The T1246X has a specified lift height of 46 feet 6 inches, which exactly matches its landing height. Pettibone points out that traditional fixed-boom pivots typically have a true landing height that is several feet less than the advertised lift height, as users must account for withdrawing the forks out of the load with enough rearward travel for the fork tips to clear the landing zone.
