Merlo’s TurboFarmer 30.7 telehandler is designed for those working in confined spaces, such as traditional farmyards. It replaces the P32.6.

Merlo’s loader is 2.0m wide and 2.1m high. Reach is almost 7.0m and lift capacity 3.0 tonnes. Power comes from a 100hp Deutz TCD four-cylinder Stage V engine.

As with other TurboFarmer models the 30.7 has EPD managed hydrostatic drive with a maximum speed of 40km/h plus load-sensing, flow-sharing hydraulics giving the opportunity for simultaneous, multiple boom movements at the same time.

Two versions of a ROPS and FOPS cab are offered. The Standard cab and the lower L model with an overall height of 1.98m. The standard cab can also be fitted with hydraulic suspension to increase comfort.

An optional 10.1in monitor in the cab offers the operator control of hydraulic oil flow rate, working parameter adjustments and a digital, live load chart helps improve safety.
