Excellent performance and compact size from the TH 3.6 fixed telescopic handler

Magni TH launches the most compact fixed telescopic handler in the TH range, the TH 3.6.

With capacity of 3 tonnes (6613 lbs) and lifting height of 5.8 metres (19 ft), the new TH 3.6 combines small size with impressive performance. In fact, the most compact fixed telescopic handler in the TH range, intended for the construction and logistics sectors and soon also for agriculture, is able to lift its maximum load to a height over 5 metres (17.7 ft), 2,500 kg (5511 lbs) to the maximum height and 1,000 kg (2,200 lbs) to a horizontal reach of more than 3.5 metres (11 feet). Its low level design makes it ideal for tight spaces, while retaining optimal ground clearance for uneven terrains.

These characteristics, together with a Deutz Stage V engine of 55 kW (75 hp) give it a top speed of 35 km/h (21 mph). The four-wheel drive and steering, with hydrostatic transmission, provide superlative stability and manoeuvrability with 3 steering modes: front, concentric and crab.  The cab of the 3.6 model is specially designed to be compact with a new dashboard to optimize the user experience through ergonomic positioning of the main controls. It also features USB ports (3.0 and c-type) for charging electronic devices and a handy cup holder. The new cab’s standard outfit is completed by the air-suspended seat, adjustable steering column, heating and radio.  Consulted via the 7 inch touch screen, the MCTS (Magni Combi Touch System) on-board software provides complete control of the machine with icon-based navigation. From the main menu, the operator can access the themed screens with the various functions, including load charts. Unlike competitor models on the market, which have the usual load cell systems, the TH 3.6 is the only machine equipped with a more sophisticated, precise tipping protection mechanism to maximise performance and safety, in line with the entire TH range. This is the LMI (Load Moment Indicator), which enables constant monitoring of the machine’s movements to prevent any kind of overload.

Magni launches also three models derived from the market’s best-selling rotating telescopic handlers, the RTH 6.22, 6.26 and 6.31, all equipped with elevating cab. This feature is designed to optimise work in conditions that demand greater visibility and to guarantee the very best comfort level by providing the operator with an ergonomic position, especially when handling delicate loads or using specialist attachments. In these situations, greater visibility means safe, effective movements in even the most complex procedures, such as use of the tree cutting and log handling attachment. The hydraulic mobile support is able to raise the cab to a height of 1.5 metres (5 ft) and tilt it between 0° and +16° for optimal control in conditions where movements must be exceptionally precise.

Magni also reveals two new attachments for the RTH and TH ranges: the 3D-Film handler and the 5T tilting rotating forks. Intended for the movie industry, the 3D-Film handler has a surface fitted to support equipment such as LED light panels or floodlights used during filming in the studio or on location. With a capacity of 2.5 tonnes (5511 lbs) and continuous rotation through 360°, it provides unbeatable manoeuvrability and versatility to offer the optimal response to this specific sector’s needs. The tilting rotating forks, on the other hand, are designed for handling bulky materials in tight spaces. Unlike standard forks, they rotate and swivel to optimise movement of the weight during loading and unloading. They deliver frontal lifting capacity of up to 5 tonnes (11,000 lbs), rotated load capacity of up to 2.5 tonnes (5511 lbs), continuous rotation through 360° and positive tilting up to 70°.
