Hire a Fixed Merlo Telehandler - Precision and Compact Performance
When you hire a fixed Merlo telehandler, you are relying on Italian engineering known for its sensitive hydraulics and exceptional all-round visibility. Merlo has shaped the market for fixed telehandlers with models that achieve impressive lift heights and load capacities despite their compact dimensions. At Luibl Rental you will find a broad selection of these machines Switzerland-wide with electric or hybrid drive, ideally suited to precise materials handling in industry and the construction trade.
Technological Highlights of the Merlo Fixed Series
The fixed models from Merlo are characterised by the unique ring-frame design, which keeps the centre of gravity of the machine extremely low. This provides outstanding stability, even when you move heavy loads on the fully extended telescopic boom. A technical look at the equipment also reveals the highly efficient hydrostatic transmission, which allows manoeuvring to the millimetre - a decisive advantage over other manufacturers. One unique feature is the continuous solid steel ring frame, which places the centre of gravity of the machine extremely low. The models available at Luibl Rental offer lift heights between 7 and 18 metres with load capacities from 3.2 up to 12 tonnes in the heavy-duty class. For the user, the patented CS cab suspension represents a technological leap, as vibrations are effectively eliminated. Combined with the continuously variable EPD drive (Electronic Power Drive), which regulates engine speed independently of travel speed, Merlo telehandlers make it possible to position the load to the millimetre - ideal for jobs where the machine has to navigate through the tightest access routes at only 2.00 metres overall width.
While you can also hire a fixed Genie telehandler from us, which is often valued for its robustness, Merlo scores above all with the patented cab offering a 360 degree view. This massively increases safety at the place of work. However, if your project requires not a fixed base but full rotation, we recommend that you consider hiring a roto telehandler.
Maximum Versatility Through Attachments
The efficiency of a Merlo machine at Luibl Rental is multiplied by the right attachments. Thanks to the quick-change system, the machines can be adapted flexibly:
-
Load forks: Standard for the safe transport of pallets and mesh containers.
-
Lattice jibs: Extend the reach and turn the Merlo into a mobile crane substitute.
-
Buckets: Perfect for handling excavated soil or recycling material.
Through the combination of all-wheel drive and a compact wheelbase, the fixed Merlo telehandler is unbeatable even in narrow warehouses or on densely built-up urban sites. Before you hire a fixed telehandler, we will gladly advise you on the optimum load capacity for your project.
Practical Example: Precise Assembly in the Logistics Hall
In a current practical example, a Merlo telehandler from Luibl Rental was used for the installation of a high-bay racking system. The challenge was to place heavy steel components in an existing hall with limited ceiling height. Thanks to the precise inching control of the Merlo, the operator was able to guide the loads gently and without jolting into the anchor points. The compact design also made it possible to operate in the narrow aisles of the hall without disrupting ongoing operations.
Safety and Maintenance Standards at Luibl Rental
The Merlo brand stands for the highest safety standards, supported by the integrated Merlo Dynamic Load Control system (M-CDC). At Luibl Rental we also guarantee that every hire machine has passed the current periodic inspection in accordance with the VUV and is maintained in technically perfect condition. Our comprehensive service includes the regular checking of all hydraulic systems and safety components.
For safe operation we make sure that your staff on site receive instruction in accordance with the VUV. For further questions about availability and terms, please use our contact form.
