Telehandlers
Like many other heavy equipment manufacturers, Mustang offers a wide selection of attachments for its machines, including a remote boom control. Additionally, it offers 19 feet of lift height and 5,500 pounds of maximum lift capacity on a compact frame.
"The Mustang 519 is a true compact unit, well suited for both rental and retail," said Doug Snorek, Mustang marketing manager. "For small- to medium-sized contractors, this is an ideal, entry-level machine."
The company's slightly larger 634 compact telehandler also is marketed to mason contractors. This Mustang features a 6,000-pound capacity and a 34-foot lift. Additionally, it is offered with short, but wide, 15-inch tires. "Because it weighs 5,000 pounds less than its competitors and has wider, flotation tires, you can get into a lot muddier situations, which brick masons often work in- especially this time of year," said Steve Challoner, Midwest region sales manager for Mustang. "And you can still go up more than 30 feet."
Like many other heavy equipment manufacturers, Mustang offers a wide selection of attachments for its machines, including a remote boom control, which allows one worker to complete inspections and other work. "You can put on a standard, OSHA-approved work platform onto the forks, and you can use this remote boom control," said Challoner. "You don't have to have an operator in the seat; the worker on the platform can control the boom. He can get up at height in this work platform and work along the envelope in front of a telehandler."
