An inching pedaling and boom side-shift gives the operator more precise control of load placement. The Merlo CDC (Dynamic Load Control) software and the load-sensing hydraulic systems are standard. The hydrostatic transmission, 4-wheel drive with 3 steering modes, 4-cylinder 170-horsepower turbo diesel, and frame leveling ensures the TF50-8 telehandler brings maximum performance to tight worksites and not bog down in uneven or loose terrain.
The TF50.8, like other Merlo telehandlers, accepts a number of attachments ranging from forks, buckets, jibs, winches, clamps, grabs and man baskets with its Quick Tac-Lock system.
The TF50.8’s modular cab offers the widest cab in its class, ergonomic dashboard with superb sightlines, and a re-engineered vent layout for improved air conditioning and heat airflow. The improved soundproof material, a drop-down two-position visor, plus better seat suspension and cushioning enhances operator comfort and productivity.
The low-pivot, side-mounted boom ensures operators have 360-degree view around their machine. A Ring of Steel high-resistance 8x8cm steel bars that exceed ROPS and FOPS standards surrounds every Merlo machine. The boom’s electronics are safely housed within the boom itself; work lights are standard.
Packed into a relatively tight footprint, 7 feet 8-inch x 15 feet 10-inch x 8 feet 3-inch TF50.8 meets the demand for high performance on the job
