SANY has announced the launch of its ‘highly anticipated’ range of telehandlers in the UK.
The first two machines introduced are the STH1440 (14m) and STH1840 (18m) models. A 7m variant is planned for release later this year.
Equipped with a Stage V 55kW/74hp Deutz engine, productivity is boosted by three selectable steering modes (two wheel, four wheel and crab), which SANY said offers the ‘ultimate’ in manoeuvrability. With a variety of attachments such as hydraulic fork positioners and configurations available, operators can tackle a versatile range of tasks.
The ROPS/FOPS cab of the series has been designed in Germany and provides standard features including a 10-inch touchscreen display with encoder control and intuitive user navigation. The adjustable suspension seat is designed to provide a more comfortable ride and the inclinable and telescopic steering column allows the operator to make adjustments to find the perfect operating position.
Other standard features include proportional single lever control with auto rpm, air-conditioning, radio with Bluetooth and USB connector, heated rear screen, sunblind, storage compartments, and cup and bottle holders.
A load management system monitors the load of the machine to prevent instability and when carrying loads will limit speeds for safety and improved load retention. Also included is a reversing camera with distance sensor, which is automatically activated when the reverse gear is engaged, a safety switch that prevents any vehicle movement when the operator is not seated, as well as hose burst safety check valves fitted on all lift cylinders stopping collapse in the event of a failure or damage. Optional screen and roof guards are also available.
Phil Boddy, European telehandler product manager at SANY, said, “We are thrilled to introduce our range of telehandlers to the UK market, representing a significant milestone in SANY’s expansion strategy. With our unwavering commitment to innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction, we are confident that SANY telehandlers will set new benchmarks for performance, safety and operator comfort, empowering our customers to achieve greater success in their operations.”
The telehandlers are now available to purchase through SANY’s network of dealer partners across the UK and Ireland. All models are registered and protected with the CESAR Datatag Scheme and CESAR ECV, and they also come with a three-year/3000-hour warranty.
