History and service record of MLT 840-115 PS and 2 related models

  • Later MLT 841 lifting figures. Manitou's page for the later MLT 841-145 PS+, dedicated to intensive agricultural handling, gives a lifting height of 7.6 m and a lifting capacity of 4.1 t, with trailer braking (hydraulic or pneumatic) among the available options. MLT 841-145 PS+ fixed telehandler, Manitou.
  • Greasing and engine stop. Manitou says the MLT 841-145 PS+ is designed to reduce total cost of ownership by optimizing fuel consumption and maintenance, for example with centralized greasing points, and lists the Ecostop intelligent engine shutdown and an automatic greasing system as options. MLT 841-145 PS+ fixed telehandler, Manitou.
  • Quietest cab claim. Manitou's MLT 840/1040/961 brochure claims the quietest cab on the market at 74 dB(A) tested to NF EN 12053, with a redesigned Easy-Step entry and large cab-frame handles. MLT / MLT-X 840, 1040, 961 brochure, Manitou.
  • Comfort Steering System. The optional patented Comfort Steering System varies steering ratio by machine speed and boom angle, so the wheels can turn through a full rotation in one steering-wheel turn instead of four. MLT / MLT-X 840, 1040, 961 brochure, Manitou.
  • Active CRC boom suspension. Active Comfort Ride Control absorbs boom movement at any boom angle and activates automatically above 4 km/h, switching off at lower speeds to favour precise load handling; it is standard on the Elite finish and optional on Premium and Classic. MLT / MLT-X 840, 1040, 961 brochure, Manitou.
  • LED package and mirrors. The Elite version adds an LED+ package of four extra lights, a panoramic interior mirror and a heated electric exterior mirror, all optional on the Premium and Classic finishes. MLT / MLT-X 840, 1040, 961 brochure, Manitou.
  • MLT 841-145 PS+ for comparison. Manitou's page for the sister MLT 841-145 PS+ lists a 4.1 t capacity, 7.6 m lift height, a Yanmar 141 hp engine with 602 Nm, an M-Shift transmission, limited-slip differentials front and rear, 43 cm ground clearance, a 200 l/min load-sensing pump and a 69 dBA soundproof cab. MLT 841-145 PS+, Manitou.
  • Options on the 841. Options listed there include a HighView camera claimed to add 10 percent loading productivity, the Comfort Steering System claimed at 12 percent, trailer braking and the Easy Manager connected solution. MLT 841-145 PS+, Manitou.
