JCB introduces HiViz telehandlers
ROCESTER, United Kingdom
JCB has launched two new low-boom Loadall telehandlers that offer improved visibility.
JCB claims all-round visibility on the Loadall 535-125 HiViz and 535-140 HiViz models has improved by 10% over predecessors, especially to the rear of the machines. This was achieved by reducing the boom pin pivot height by 235mm (9.5 inches).
The new machines also have a "more compact rear chassis", resulting in 90mm (3.5 inches) less overhang. Other improvements include new axles featuring higher lock angles which improve the telehandler’s turning radius by about 250mm.

SYDNEY, Australia
Bobcat has introduced the T2250 telehandler that offers the features of a skid-steer loader, articulated wheel loader and telehandler in one machine.
According to James Kennedy of Clark Equipment, Bobcat’s distributor for Oceania, the 4.5–tonne (9,921lb) telehandler is "as compact as the largest Bobcat skid-steer loader but offers a loading performance comparable to an equivalent-sized articulated loader".
It is especially suitable for rough-terrain applications like low-rise residential construction or agribusiness.
Made in Pont Chateau, France, it is marketed as the VR417 in North America and T2250 in the rest of the world.
