Compact telescopic handler delivers in confined conditions

摘要

An improved hydrostatic drive and upgraded hydraulic lift components deliver additional capacity and an impressive working envelope for such a compact machine. The 516-40 is powered by a 2.2-litre JCB Diesel by Kohler engine, producing 49hp (36.6 kW) of power. With permanent all-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, the 516-40 offers a turning radius of just 2.8m. A lift capacity of 1.6 tonnes and a maximum lift height of 4m make for a powerful performer on house building and general construction sites, despite the machine being just 1.56m wide and 1.8m high. These dimensions will allow the telehandler to operate in underground or multistorey car parks, making it an ideal machine for residential and office development. The improved hydrostatic transmission delivers increased pushing power and higher travel speeds in both low and high travel ranges. A constant-flow hydraulic option can be used to power rotary sweeper brushes and other attachments, independent of travel speed. A single proportional joystick controls all boom and auxiliary hydraulic functions for ease of operation.
