Factors for the safe use of telescopic handlers

Liebherr’s Telescopic Handlers are built for variable applications and have one common denominator – 100% safety. Fast, nimble and equipped with powerful hydraulics, the machines are used widely across construction and material handling applications, but moving heavy loads at height while travelling over varied terrain demands maximum safety. We have compiled this guide to the six most important factors.

Factor 1

Operator

Long hours, noise and a myriad of controls are all fatigue-inducing factors that can have a negative effect on man and machine.

Factor 2

Visibility

Visibility is vital when quickly assessing hazardous situations. This means a 360-degree view around the vehicle and tyres as well as sight of the load and attachment tools.

Factor 3

Stability

For off road-capable stackers with variable reach, maximum stability when moving loads and great traction are indispensable. Telescopic handlers from Liebherr are sure-footed and never lose traction.

Factor 4

Technology

State-of-the-art safety features prevent the driver performing dangerous manoeuvres. The machine can calculate the safest movements at all times, often something the driver can’t do with the same accuracy.

Factor 5

Simplicity

Sounds simple but is critical where safety is involved. Slower movements allow stacking tasks to be carried out with greater accuracy and safety. The logical operating concept allows even inexperienced drivers to safely handle construction equipment.

Design

Robustly built telescopic handlers with components developed for specific tasks – and that are regularly maintained – guarantee low downtimes and reduce the risk of material-related accidents.
