| The TJ 85 is one of four rough-terrain MEWPs offered by Manitou in North America. |
They range in platform lift height, from 64 feet 10 inches to 84 feet 6 inches. The Manitou TJ 65+ and TJ 85+ come standard with a larger platform, measuring 7 feet 7 inches by 3 feet and can comfortably hold three people and are allowed to lift up to 900 pounds unrestricted.
All four models are powered by a Kubota 49.6 hp diesel engine and have a front oscillating axle for additional driving power on any terrain. Machine maintenance is simplified with a self-diagnostic panel at ground level to quickly detect fault codes.
Manitou’s telematics system also gives the ability to manage the unit’s location, maintenance cycles and service warnings.
