Gehl CT5-16 to RS5-19: telehandler

History and service record of CT5-16 to RS5-19

  • Telehandlers and Manitou. Manitou Group's September 2008 purchase of Gehl let Manitou expand its telehandler business into the United States; Gehl's own range includes telescopic handlers. Gehl Company, Wikipedia.
  • Two designs. The CT5-16 is a ground-engaging compact telehandler with a stronger gooseneck and a two-channel formed boom, while the RS5-19 is a lighter pick-and-carry unit; Lift and Access reviewed the CT5-16 alongside the Mustang 519. Gehl CT5-16 and Mustang 519 compact telehandlers, Lift and Access; Gehl CT5-16, Construction Equipment.
  • CT5-16 built for ground engagement. Construction Equipment's write-up says the CT5-16 is the ground-engaging model with a substantially stronger gooseneck and a formed two-channel boom that Gehl says is up to 2.5 times stronger than a typical pick-and-carry boom, while the RS5-19 is lighter and more nimble. Gehl CT5-16, Construction Equipment.
  • Engine and drive. The CT5-16 uses a naturally aspirated Perkins 1103-C33 making 58 peak hp at 1,400 rpm, mounted at the rear so the boom can move over for a larger cab, with multi-disc oil-bath brakes on the front axle and outboard planetary final drives. Gehl CT5-16, Construction Equipment.
  • Joystick and protection. A tri-function joystick runs every boom function, with forward and back raising the boom, side-to-side curling the carriage and thumb control of telescope, and the CT5-16 has 14 inches of ground clearance with a solid steel underside pan. Gehl CT5-16, Construction Equipment.
  • RS5-19 frame and boom protection. DirectIndustry's product description of the RS5-19 lists a rigid frame for stability, hydraulic hoses routed inside the boom, a reinforced nose on the inner boom and a double-wall rear tower for longevity. Telehandler RS5-19, Gehl via DirectIndustry.
  • Brakes and differential. The RS5-19 has a spring-applied, hydraulic-release parking brake on the front brakes that removes adjustment and cable stretch, inboard wet-disc service brakes with individual bleeders, and a limited slip differential on the front axle. Telehandler RS5-19, Gehl via DirectIndustry.
  • Level indicators. A boom level indicator on the outer boom and a frame level gauge in the cab that reads in degrees are listed, along with hydraulic self-leveling lift action that keeps the load level as the boom rises. Telehandler RS5-19, Gehl via DirectIndustry.
  • RS5-19 figures. Gehl's RS 5-19 GEN:3 page lists 5,500 lb of lifting capacity and 19 ft of reach in a compact frame informed by decades of operator feedback. RS 5-19 GEN:3, Gehl.
