Manitou MSI 50 overview

Drive

The main lever combines all controls

This mean the driver can carry out all handling operations while keeping one hand on the steering wheel at all times.


Truly efficient

The Perkins 1104C44 (67kW/84 hp) engine, the hydrostatic drive gives the speed and power you need for intensive materials handling on site. Hydrostatic braking occurs when the accelerator pedal is released, ensuring controlled approach, millimetre by millimetre.


Basic dimensions

Door Operation

Depending on the weather, the operator can work with the door open or closed. In the open position, the door still falls within the counter balance width. In addition, the right-hand window can be opened completely or left ajar.
