Telesafe provides telehandler owners with peace of mind.
Manitou Australia has launched an inspection program to assist owners of Manitou telehandlers to meet their health and safety obligations and to help them secure the resale value of their equipment.

The Telesafe service is provided by Manitou authorised dealers and performed by Manitou technicians.

According to Gary Walker, customer service manager, the program provides owners with peace of mind by ensuring their equipment safely performs the way it was designed to.

"Owners of telehandlers should be aware that the current Australian Work, Health and Safety (WHS) legislation requires a duty of care to ensure the safe operation of their equipment and it is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that any safety risks associated with the use of their equipment are minimised," he says.
