Guest Fendt pwr Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 It looks to have way more detail than the old john deere tele-handler britains made. I think that Merlo loader is more for biulding sites than farm yards though,the legs may get stuck in some soft ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 I think the real thing "slews" in the centre like a 360 degree crane doesn't it, hence the stabiliser legs "all round", does the model do the same?? If it does it would be the ideal tool for the farm yard builder to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 As a full time job I drive a lowloader for a plant hire firm,we have ten Merlo roto's (the name say's it all )The model showen is a 40.25(4ton lift and 25m reach)ours are smaller 30.16 (3ton lift and 16m reach) we find people love them as there's much less shunting about on site.
