Rent telehandlers in Crailsheim: 63 models from 4.30 to 38.90 m
Rent telehandlers for Crailsheim from Luibl Rental, choosing from 63 models: 19 fixed machines up to 18.80 m, 36 roto telehandlers up to 38.90 m lift height and 27.00 m outreach, 7 heavy-duty machines from 7,200 kg lifting capacity and the electric telehandler Manitou MT 625e. In Crailsheim, a telehandler often takes on a job for which another machine would otherwise be ordered: the lift onto the factory roof instead of a mobile crane, pallet handling on the construction site instead of a forklift, or a quick task at height instead of an aerial work platform. Which design fits therefore depends on which machine you want to replace. We deliver all machines from our Passau location.
Rent telehandlers in Crailsheim: which design replaces which machine
A telehandler combines a boom, an all-terrain chassis and an interchangeable attachment. You can therefore select it according to the machine whose job it is meant to take over:
| Design | Models | Lift height | Lifting capacity | Takes over the job of, in Crailsheim |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roto telehandler | 36 | 15.42–38.90 m | 4,000–8,000 kg | Mobile crane for lifts at factory halls and over buildings |
| Fixed telehandler | 19 | 4.30–18.80 m | 1,250–5,500 kg | Forklift on construction sites, yards and farms |
| Heavy-duty telehandler | 7 | 9.40–11.92 m | from 7,200 kg | Heavy-duty forklift for machine parts and steel construction |
| Electric telehandler Manitou MT 625e | 1 | 5.85 m | 2,500 kg | Combustion-engine forklift in halls and logistics areas |
The values are maximum values per design. How much a machine can still lift with the boom fully extended is shown in the load chart of the respective model. You can find all machines under Rent telehandlers.
Roto telehandlers instead of a mobile crane: lifts in Crailsheim up to 27.00 m outreach
Crailsheim's mechanical and plant engineering sector involves lifts that are too high and too far for a forklift: ventilation units onto the hall roof, steel beams for an extension or components to an assembly opening on an upper floor. A roto telehandler can handle many of these itself.
Rotating superstructure instead of repositioning
The roto telehandler levels itself on four outriggers and slews the load with its rotating superstructure, without the machine having to be repositioned. The largest model, the Magni RTH 6.39SH, reaches 38.90 m lift height and 27.00 m outreach with up to 6,000 kg lifting capacity. This allows it to lift over extensions, ramps or storage areas in front of which a crane would otherwise be set up.
Load hook, cable winch and lattice jib winch for crane operation
For crane lifts, equip the roto telehandler with one of our attachments. With the load hook you can sling beams, roof elements or big bags. With the cable winch you can lower loads in a controlled way behind parapets or into shafts. With the lattice jib winch you can guide the load over an obstacle. For this crane operation the driver needs an additional qualification, described in the section on driver obligations.
Measure load and distance before your enquiry
The lifting capacity decreases the further the boom extends. Therefore, tell us the weight of the heaviest load and the horizontal distance from the set-up position to the placement point. We use this to check in the load chart whether a roto machine can manage the lift or whether you need a crane after all.
Fixed telehandlers instead of forklifts: material handling on construction sites and yards in Crailsheim
Where the ground is unpaved or the material has to go up to an upper floor, a forklift reaches its limits. Fixed telehandlers drive across the construction site on their all-terrain chassis and place pallets up to 18.80 m high, with 1,250 to 5,500 kg lifting capacity.
New builds and renovation: pallets straight onto the scaffold
In new residential areas and when renovating residential and commercial buildings, the fixed telehandler brings bricks, insulation and roof tiles from the storage area directly onto the scaffold or floor slab. The boom reaches forward over excavation pits, front gardens or the scaffold base, where a forklift with a vertical mast cannot get to.
Farming in the surrounding area: bucket and forks in turn
On farms between the Jagst and the Hohenlohe Plain, the fixed telehandler moves bulk material, soil and feed with the bucket and stacks pallets in barns and storage halls with the forks. You change the attachment depending on the task.
Soft ground along the Jagst: reinforce access routes
On freshly backfilled construction sites and in the Jagst floodplain after rain, the ground easily gives way under the wheels. Lay out access routes with gravel or panels and drive with the load lowered, so that the machine remains stable.
Telehandlers with work basket in Crailsheim: only for short tasks at height
A telehandler with a work basket lifts people for individual tasks, such as replacing a light, cleaning a gutter or checking a fixing point on the facade. For longer work on a facade or hall roof, a telescopic boom lift in Crailsheim is usually the better choice. It is built for carrying people, and the operator controls it directly from the basket. Anyone using the work basket on a telehandler needs a separate additional qualification as the driver.
Heavy-duty and electric: two special cases for telehandlers in Crailsheim
Two tasks suit neither the fixed nor the roto machine: very heavy single loads and work in enclosed halls.
Heavy-duty telehandlers from 7,200 kg for machine parts
For machine components, steel structures or heavy building elements, the 5,500 kg of a fixed machine are not enough. Our seven heavy-duty telehandlers lift from 7,200 kg and reach 9.40 to 11.92 m lift height. They need a paved, level driving surface and an access route wide enough for transporting the machine.
Electric telehandler Manitou MT 625e in halls and logistics
In factory halls and in the logistics areas at the Feuchtwangen/Crailsheim motorway junction, the Manitou MT 625e works without exhaust emissions at the site of use. It lifts 2,500 kg to 5.85 m and reaches 3.40 m forward. With a width of 1.81 m, a height of 1.92 m and an operating weight of 4,800 kg, it fits through many hall doors. Clarify the door height, the floor load capacity of the hall and the charging options on site in advance.
Delivering telehandlers to Crailsheim: around 320 km from Passau
We deliver the telehandler from our Passau location to Crailsheim. The route is around 320 km via the A3 to Nuremberg and then via the A6. We arrange the delivery date by agreement. For roto and heavy-duty machines, we recommend early scheduling.
Plan a level area at the site where the truck can stop and unload the machine. The Magni RTH 6.39SH measures 8.60 × 2.54 × 3.12 m and weighs 24,000 kg. If the site is in the town centre or in a plant with access control, tell us the unloading location and time window. You can read more about the process and vehicles under Transport.
Operating telehandlers in Crailsheim: DGUV Regulation 68 and DGUV Principle 308-009
Only persons who are at least 18 years old, suitable, trained and authorised in writing by the employer may drive a telehandler. This is required by DGUV Regulation 68 (DGUV Vorschrift 68).
Training and additional levels according to DGUV Principle 308-009
The basis of the training is DGUV Principle 308-009 (DGUV Grundsatz 308-009) for rough-terrain telescopic forklifts. Level 1 is the basic training for fixed telehandlers. Additional level 2a is required for drivers of roto telehandlers and anyone lifting with a load hook or winch in crane operation. Additional level 2b is required for the work basket.
Risk assessment and instruction
Before use, the employer assesses the hazards in accordance with Section 3 BetrSichV (German Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health), such as stability, overhead power lines, traffic and wind. Instruction on the specific machine is governed by Section 12 ArbSchG (German Occupational Safety and Health Act) and Section 12 BetrSichV. We can provide information on training through certified partners.
