Italian heavy machinery brand Magni is making its mark in the Australian construction market with the launch of its new range of telescopic handlers with rotating cabs.
It can be equipped with a wide range of attachments to carry out different tasks, offering versatility to the operator.
The machines are capable of lifting up to 6 tonnes and reaching up to 46 metres.
According to Tony Lockwood, Telehandler Product Manager for Australian distributor Construction Equipment Australia, these telescopic handlers are designed to offer quality, safety, reliability and comfort.
“The cabin has been developed for the safety and comfort of the operator to make manoeuvring the machine safe and simple,” he says.

“The cabin has full visibility thanks to a large windshield that allows the operator to look at the load even when it is suspended on its head and also when the boom is completely lowered.”
A movable steering column allows the operator to get in and out easily and to achieve a comfortable driving position.
Speed accuracy is regulated by a hydrostatic transmission and variable displacement pump with a 500 bar working pressure.
“Magni’s software manages the flow sharing system to ensure more precise and safe hydraulic movements,” Lockwood explains.
Attachment recognition built into the operating systems on the Magni telehandlers gives the operator a clear view of the position and capacity of their load at all times, helping to stop the machine from working outside its envelope.
“Steering cylinders on the axles, epicyclic reduction and oil-immersed multi-disc brakes protect from accidental collision,” Lockwood adds.
An integrated diagnostic system helps technicians identify problems on the electrical circuit to reduce troubleshooting time and improve machine reliability.
“The electronic management of the transmission allows for a longer life for components and reduces fuel consumption by 10 to 15 per cent,” Lockwood claims.
The machines feature a powerful hydrostatic transmission, 4-wheel drive, 2-speed forward/ reverse and rear tilting as well as different steering modes, allowing them to operate in all kinds of terrain.
“The fully enclosed and airtight cab is pressurized with 100 per cent inlet air filtration and has air conditioning,” Lockwood says. “This allows Magni telehandlers to work in polluted environments with filtered air entering the cabin.”
The quick fit system grants a rapid, solid and efficient coupling of attachments. Once the mounted attachment is recognised, the machine automatically sets load limits to ensure safety while working.
Pivoting and scissor outriggers can be used for confined jobsites to enhance stability and productivity of the machines.
