Manitou Group is expanding its range of telehandlers dedicated to the North American market with the launch of a new compact model, the Manitou MTA 519, also available under the Gehl brand as Gehl TH5-19.
With a height of 6 feet, 4 inches and a width of 5 feet, 11 inches, the telehandler can be easily transported to different jobsites, with slinging points located at the front and rear of the machine. Its compact design makes the MTA 519 highly maneuverable in confined spaces, with a turning radius of just 10 feet, 10 inches. The MTA 519 is now equipped with a universal skid-steer quick-attach system that is supported with a full power ground engaging telescopic boom. Equipped with a hydrostatic transmission, this new model, though compact, ensures a high level of performance, with a maximum load capacity of up to 5,500 pounds and a maximum working height of 19 feet, 1 inch. Its outreach of up to 11 feet, 2 inches is ideal for loading and unloading materials on the second floor. The ground clearance of 13 inches allows the MTA 519 to be used on all types of terrain.
Because the attachment system is a universal skid-steer mount, the MTA 519 can be used with a range of attachments. An automatic parking brake is also standard on the MTA 519. Components are easy to access, so users can carry out maintenance operations with greater ease, thus reducing the total cost of ownership.
