Merlo Heavy Duty Telehandlers chosen for Rental 2019 Editor's Choice Awards

ROCK HILL, S.C. - Oct. 15, 2019 - PRLog -- The 2019 Rental Editor's Choice Awards represent the equipment rental industry's best products gaining interest from end-users and rental professionals alike. Winners, like Merlo Heavy Duty Telehandlers, were chosen by Rental's editorial team based on several different factors that include innovation, rental market utility, and audience engagement on ForConstructionPros.com/Rental.
"We're thrilled to announce the 2019 Editor's Choice Award winners. As always, this year's winning products represent the best of what leading manufacturers have to offer for today's rental inventories," says Jenny Lescohier, editor of Rental. "Products chosen for this honor are those which are truly innovative and have demonstrated proven durability. Also, the winners are products that construction professionals have shown an active interest in on ForConstructionPros.com, so it follows they'll be looking for them at their preferred rental source."
One award winner is the Merlo Heavy Duty range of telehandlers. Imported and distributed by Applied Machinery Sales (AMS) the Merlo Heavy Duty range of telehandlers is engineered to deliver the highest level of technology in terms of efficiency, performance, and versatility. With engines delivering a powerful 75-170 HP and a hydrostatic transmission (with "EPD" electronic management system) Merlo guarantees a maximum speed of 25 mph while maintaining low fuel consumption. Lift heights start at 31', and maximum operating capacities start at 8,800 lbs. These machines are compact, lightweight, and nimble, a benefit for tight job sites.
Several Merlo telehandlers within this range have independent stabilizers mounted on the front axle. Each stabilizer's independent action ensures a  level machine so the boom can safely operate at full extension. Another feature is the boom side-shift. Boom side-shift gives the operator precision load positioning capability without continuously moving the machine. These standard features save time, ensure job site efficiency, and provide more machine safety. See the full line at https://ams-merlo.com.
