Graham Trundle of GT Lifting, which specialises in 360 degree and heavy lift telehandlers, said: “The new machine benefits from a much increased capacity at full outreach whilst maintaining a compact footprint in line with other Models in the Merlo MCSS range.”

The new model went straight out on rental to a major contractor, following some CPCS operator training.
