The MLT 960 is a specially designed telehandler for heavy-duty activities. The 141 hp John Deere (Stage IIIB/Tier) engine comes equipped with an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recycling) valve and a diesel particulate filter (DFP) for all of the power and speed you could need with controlled fuel consumption to minimise the impact your machine has on the environment. The CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) ensures smoothness whilst maintaining torque. The reinforced oil-bath immersed brakes ensure a long braking life, whilst the automatic radiator unclogging system reverses airflow for constant optimum cooling, particularly when in dusty environments.

Maximum travel speed adjustment and mode selectors (standard or maintenance) let you choose controls that meet your needs and provide comfort and security. The inching pedal helps you precisely and smoothly approach and grab loads, whilst the driver's cab air and watertightness (pressurisation optional), JSM (Joystick Switch & Move) controls and adjustable elements accommodate all shapes and sizes so the operator remains comfortable when working long hours.

The MHT 10180 is designed for heavy duty activity, and with a maximum capacity of 18 tonnes it is perfectly capable of handling bulkier, heavier loads. And for improved precision when approaching loads and manoeuvring, this handler comes equipped with a hydrostatic transmission for increased flexibility.
Easily manoeuvrable thanks to 4-wheel drive, 3 steering modes a very generous ground clearance, there's no situation this machine can't get out of. It's also compatible with a wide range of attachments for amazing versatility and power regardless of what the workday throws at you.
