Bobcat's new TL30.70 compact telehandler with its three-tonne maximum lift capacity and a maximum lift height of 7 m has been designed for a wide range of applications in the construction and rental industries.

The TL30.70 is a compact and cost-effective alternative to the larger 7-m models, especially where working spaces are tight and increased manoeuvrability is required, says a company spokesman.

In addition, performance is not compromised as the TL30.70 offers an outstanding maximum reach of 4 m with a load of more than 1 tonne. At the maximum lift height, users can lift up to 2 tonnes of weight – sufficient to place a pallet of heavy bricks in most conditions.

“The compactness and stability of the TL30.70 makes this machine a perfect tool for easy pick-and-go or for lifting materials to height on housing and commercial property developments,” the spokesman says.

Like all Bobcat telehandlers, the TL30.70 has a heavy-duty hydrostatic transmission that allows smooth and precise low speed travel, with the ability to immediately go faster or work harder when required. The Bobcat auto-shift transmission automatically adapts the motor torque and speed to the desired level for the job. The transmission is equipped with an inching function that allows the operator to be even more precise in low-speed applications without having to use the brakes, reducing fatigue and increasing safety.

Bobcat telehandlers have a robust box-welded frame for enhanced rigidity. The shielded bottom plate protects vital components and a combination of specific features maximises reliability and reduces total cost of ownership in even the most severe conditions.

For the Middle East market, Bobcat telehandlers are powered by the Perkins 1104D-44TA Stage IIIA/Tier 3 diesel engine, delivering 100 hp by use of mechanical injection. All Bobcat models are covered by a three-year/3,000-hour warranty as standard, with an option to extend it to five years/5,000 hours.
