Manitou Ecomode
The Eco mode automatically decreases engine rpm when machine speed is stabilized in the high range to decrease fuel consumption.
The hydrostatic transmission compensate engine rpm reduction to keep the same translation speed.
Customer challenge
Intensive roading & trailer towing often comes with high average engine rpm.
This generates high fuel consumption and noise.
Farmers using MLT telescopic telehandlers have several advantages:
- Fuel efficiency: you can reduce fuel consumption by up to 8% during intensive towing and hauling operations on the road.
- Reduction of pollutant emissions: you reduce environmental impact
- Noise reduction: you gain in working comfort thanks to the engine noise level
- TCO reduction: your system contributes to the overall reduction of the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of your agricultural telescopic handler.
