HANDOVER GUIDE
The MRT + PRIVILEGE telehandler can work with a comprehensive range of
attachments, combining lift, offset and rotation functions within the same
machine, and enabling the use of the machine in static mode with stabilisers.
The range meets fully all the challenges with working at great heights in
cramped sites.
