Description
The Merlo Panoramic 40.12 Telehandler is a robust stabilised telescopic handler designed to deliver a strong combination of lifting capacity, reach and precision control for construction, industrial and infrastructure applications. With a 4 tonne maximum lift capacity and a vertical lifting height of 11.5 metres, it provides confident performance for demanding loading, stacking and placement tasks on busy jobsites.
Powered by a hydrostatic transmission and a Stage V diesel engine producing around 55 kW (75 hp) in its standard configuration — with an optional higher‑output engine also available — the Panoramic 40.12 delivers smooth, responsive performance and efficient fuel use. Load‑sensing hydraulics and Merlo’s Eco Power Drive (EPD) system help optimise engine speed and reduce operating costs, while the machine’s design supports excellent traction and manoeuvrability on varied terrain.
Safety and control are central to the Panoramic 40.12’s design: integrated front stabilisers and a tilt correction system help maintain stability on uneven ground, while the boom side‑shift feature — with lateral movement up to around 660 mm — allows operators to accurately position loads without needing to reposition the entire machine. Together with an advanced control interface and thoughtful ergonomics, these systems boost productivity and reduce operator fatigue over long shifts.
Comfort and visibility are enhanced by Merlo’s panoramic cab, whose generous glazed area gives excellent sightlines in all directions, while features such as a towing hook, roof wiper and spacious operator space add practical touchpoints for everyday work. Compact enough for a wide range of onsite environments yet capable enough for heavy‑duty tasks, the Panoramic 40.12 is a dependable choice for contractors, plant hire companies and professionals seeking a versatile telehandler with balanced performance and precision.
