Churcham Homes has established a strong reputation as a prestige West Country house builder. Based at Huntley, Gloucestershire, the family-owned business specialises in high-value, architect-designed homes and its latest development, at Ullenwood near Cheltenham, will encompass its 100th house to date.

The Ullenwood site will offer a stunning combination of ultra-contemporary residences in a beautiful 34-acre Cotswold setting, with the first of 26 spacious houses due to be completed before the end of 2021. The task of making sure the right kit is on-site to ensure the houses are built on schedule to Churcham’s high standards  falls to Site Maintenance Manager, Lyndon Liddington.

“It’s a complex build and I knew we would need a tough, reliable machine that could be used for a wide variety of applications,” said Lyndon. By a stroke of luck the Churcham offices are right next to T H WHITE’s Huntley branch, and it was there that construction machinery specialist Steve Clucas-Tomlinson introduced Lyndon to the Manitou MRT 2150 Privilege Plus rotating telehandler.

Lyndon knew immediately that this was the machine he needed: “It’s incredible – Manitou advertise it as a 3-in-1 machine – telehandler, winch and work platform – but it’s much more than that. It can do almost every job needed on a construction site, from simply moving materials around to use as a crane. Because it rotates through 360 degrees you can carry out all sorts of tasks without having to move the machine.

“On sites where a crane has been brought in to lift roof trusses you can often be waiting around for wind to drop etc, but because the Manitou is on site all the time you can just do those jobs when the moment is right – not being governed by the weather. The Manitou’s built-in telescopic stabilisers make it safe and effective for use as a crane and its 17.9m reach and 5 tonne lift capacity mean it can handle steels and other heavy items.

“Another great feature is the electronic sensor that identifies the attachment in use and adjusts the load settings accordingly,” Lyndon adds.

The purchase was made and the Manitou MRT2150 was delivered to Ullenwood in January. Lyndon is over the moon: “It’s the best thing we’ve ever bought – a real all-rounder. No serious builder should be without one!

The modern construction machine is rarely owned and operated by the same person. It could be part of a contractor’s or hire fleet, or operated by a farm manager on behalf of the owner.

In many cases the owner does not see the machine from one month to the next, but he/she does want to know where it is, how much work it does each day, and when it needs to be serviced. The Manitou ‘Connected Machine’ system provides fleet managers with this, and more, information via their own dashboard on a PC or mobile phone App. What’s more, it has been a standard feature on all compatible machines manufactured since January 2019.

Firstly, Connected Machines include a tracker which constantly communicates the machine’s location to the fleet manager. It is also possible to Geofence the machine to send an alert if it moves out of the expected operating area. The manager has access to all operational data, such as hours worked, current activity, operator alarms, etc. They can also see when it is due for its next service, or analyse error codes before attending a site to service a machine. This feature, alone, can reduce the need for a primary visit to diagnose a fault, followed by a second visit to rectify it. It means reduced downtime for the operator and reduced service costs for the machine owner.

The user-friendly Connected Machine dashboard provides the fleet manager with the location of their entire fleet, with details of each machine, its current status, and service requirements. The MyManitou Mobile App is designed for machine owners to ‘connect’ with their machine when away from the office. This can be particularly useful for mobile engineers to locate a machine which they are due to attend or to diagnose faults in advance of a site visit.

All Connected Machines are supplied with 2 year, 2,000 hour, manufacturer warranty as standard. That can be extended by 1 to 4 years offering peace of mind for up to 6 years, or 6,000 hours (whichever comes first). 

Manitou Connected Machines are designed to ensure that fleet managers and farming groups have real-time visibility of their entire fleet, know where each machine is, what it is doing, and when it next requires a service.

Focus on Manitou telehandlers for the building & construction sector

Manitou’s MT construction telehandlers are material handling machines equipped with 4-wheel drive and steering designed to work in off-road conditions. Thanks to their high-performance load charts, they offer you a working envelope adapted to various construction sites and tasks – masonry, structure, framework, cladding, roofing, renovation, or tunnelling. With an MT telescopic handler, you will be able to load/unload, transport, distribute and handle all types of loads with precision and comfort. Allowing you to operate quickly and efficiently, your machine improves your productivity and provides you with a perfect safety of execution.

All MT models have:

• Great versatility. Accessories can be changed in minutes – with more than 100 attachments to choose from including recovery buckets, jib cranes, floating fork aprons, fork spreaders, big-bag handlers, sweepers and more
• Perfect maneuverability and three steering modes: 2 or 4 wheel steering, crab mode
• All-terrain design allowing operation on all types of sites, including on rough or cramped terrain
• Impact-resistant cabs with 360-degree visibility
• Enhanced cab and easy handling thanks to a clear and modular dashboard, intuitive controls and Manitou’s patented joystick providing flexibility and precision of movement.
• Optimum safety thanks to high-performance stabilizers, multiple braking systems and a particularly robust design
• Easy and accessible maintenance points

Here’s a look at two top picks:

THE COMPACT FAVOURITE
The Manitou MT625 is a utility all-purpose machine from Manitou’s Construction Telehandler range with 5.85m lift and 2,500kg payload. Its compact dimensions enable you to carry out all manner of handling work: placing pallets on the first floor of a building, bulk loading or unloading from storage area or on site, work in underground car parks, semi constructed buildings or low headroom building areas on congested sites.

Designed with construction and renovation in mind, the MT 625 has exceptional characteristics with a width and height less than 2m (1.81 x 1.92m) and 33cm ground clearance, the MT 625 moves easily in restricted spaces which would typically be inaccessible to other handling equipment. Extreme manoeuvrability comes from its 4-wheel drive and all-wheel steering with single lever steering mode. The hydrostatic transmission provides flexible and progressive control for positioning a load with more accuracy and safety. This system adapts the performance of your machine to the operator’s requirements using the inching function, and you can adjust the speed of travel of the truck independently of the engine speed. You can also adapt your speed to working conditions and optimise fuel consumption – a +/- switch on the dashboard allows you to select either on-site speed (7 kph) or road speed (25 kph).

THE MIGHTY MUSCLE
With the muscle to lift heavy loads to high places, the Manitou MT1840 telehandler strikes the perfect balance between power and precision.  Specially designed for high bay/high rise work sites this heavy performer is ideal for an array of construction handling from concrete mixing to buckets and hook, moving bulk materials to masonry support.

Offering an impressive lifting capacity of 4 tons up to a height of 59ft, it also features excellent lateral and front stability, particularly when the outriggers are deployed. Equally at home on uneven terrain, it has a generous 42cm ground clearance and a tight turning circle meaning that manoeuvrability is never a problem. Robust and designed to last, this handler is equipped with a low frame steel door and quality components to ensure longevity. For ease of transportation, multiple slinging points are provided. It also boasts outstanding safety and its new easy step access makes hopping on and off a breeze.  A true multi-tasker, it can be adapted to meet all your needs simply by changing the boom attachment.

With the muscle to lift heavy loads to high places, the Manitou MT1840 telehandler strikes the perfect balance between power and precision.

Specially designed for high bay/high rise work sites. Offering an impressive lifting capacity of 4 tons up to a height of 59ft, it also features excellent lateral and front stability, particularly when the outriggers are deployed. Equally at home on uneven terrain, it has a generous ground clearance and a tight turning circle meaning that manoeuvrability is never a problem. Robust and designed to last, this handler is equipped with a low frame steel door and quality components to ensure longevity. For ease of transportation, multiple slinging points are provided. A true multi-tasker, it can be adapted to meet all your needs simply by changing the boom attachment. 

When you need a really heavy lifter that can also handle hefty loads with precision, the Manitou MHT range provides the answer.

For example, the new MHT 12330 telehandler features a 32-ton fork capacity and 35.7-ton lift hook capacity. With a maximum lift height of 39 feet 1 inch and maximum reach of 21 feet 8 inches, it has the ability to move industrial equipment in areas where it would be impossible to use a crane.

Powered by a 245hp Stage V / Tier IV final Deutz engine, it has a three-speed hydrostatic transmission with full wheel four-wheel drive. The operator can choose all-wheel, crab or front wheel steering, depending on the job.

Top applications for the Manitou MHT 12330 include infrastructure projects, mining, bridge construction, steel mills, oil refineries, quarries, power distribution and heavy hauling. This machine is a truly versatile machine, compatible with a wide range of attachments, including those from smaller telehandler models.

Stepping up even further, the Manitou MHT-X range is able to lift up to 40 tons up to 32ft, making it possible to transport heavy and large loads not only with flexibility and precision, but also in absolute safety. Robust build quality means the MHT-X is perfect for all-terrain handling applications.

If you are looking for a heavy lifter, the T H WHITE Construction team at Marlborough can deliver what you need. Call them on 01672 512328.

Manitou is equally strong in the construction business, with some of the toughest, most versatile machines in the business. Here’s our quick pick of excavators. loaders and lifters, but remember that we can supply any machine from the New Holland or Manitou ranges. For details of all the machines, plus some great finance deals, CONTACT EITHER YOUR T H WHITE REP OR OUR MARLBOROUGH BRANCH ON 01672 512328.

The New Holland E37C compact excavator is a master of small spaces but with BIG digging and grading performance.We supply the following New Holland models:

Backhoe Loaders: B100C, B110C, B115C; Mini Excavators: E17C, E18C, E26C, E33C, E37C, E57C, E60C; Wheel Loaders: W110D, W130D, W170D; Skid Steer Loaders and Compact Track Loaders: L213, L216, L218, L220, L221, L230, C227, C238

Even the baby of the New Holland compact track loader range, the L213 shown at work here, has the best class dump height and reach in the business. The redesigned vertical lift geometry of the SUPER BOOM^® enables operators to load material right in the centre of the truck bed. In addition, its pivot point is very close to the machine’s centre of gravity, resulting in exceptional stability of the machine at work.

New Holland’s New C Series backhoe loaders with Tier 4 Final certified engines deliver the power and torque needed so you can dig, load, trench or push faster, while reducing the impact on the environment. This is the B110C backhoe loader.

The Manitou MT625-109 is a utility all-purpose machine from Manitou’s Construction Telehandler range with 5.85m lift and 2,500kg payload.

One of the beefiest rotating telehandlers in the Manitou range – the MRT 2550 Privilege Plus – has been added to the plant list at Scottish-based Graph Engineering.

Managing Director George Auld is looking forward to working with the new machine, which was supplied by T H WHITE Construction in mid-February and was put to work straight away on a malting site in East Lothian – a job for which T H WHITE Projects supplied the silos. 

With a company history stretching back more than 25 years, Graph Engineering has worked extensively on industrial and grain handling installations across the UK, Europe, Ireland and even in the Orkney Islands, many of the commissions being undertaken with 

T H WHITE Projects. It was to meet the demands of these larger installations that George bought the MRT 2550. He is a long-term user of Manitou telehandlers and he already has a heavy duty 3.7-tonne lift MRT 2150 in his fleet as well as an MT 625 purchased from T H WHITE a couple of years ago for lighter work.

“We love the durability and reliability of Manitou machines,” said George, “and the 5 tonne capacity plus 25m lift of the MRT 2550 will be a real advantage for installation of steelwork and conveyors.

“In many applications we will be able to use the MRT 2550 as a crane by adding a winch which will give us an extra 4m lift – and up to 7m for lifting lighter loads. The boom on the MRT 2550 comprises four elements which, combined with the 360deg rotation of the turret, allows many operations to be performed without moving the equipment. The E-reco attachment recognition system keeps an eye on the working configuration to detect any overload and make sure that everything stays within the safe working envelope. The machine is essentially a forklift, crane and access platform all in one”

There’s a Manitou telehandler for a wide range of construction tasks. For all the details and impartial advice on the right one for your application, call Steve Clucas-Tomlinson on 07860 593339 or Luke Sellwood on 07780 225104.

After many years as an official dealer for Manitou loaders, T H WHITE has now also been appointed as a dealer for the French company’s innovative range of access and aerial work platforms.

Making it easy and safe to access hard-to-reach places, Manitou’s aerial platforms are offered in a variety of configurations. Depending on the application, the most appropriate solution might be a platform with a long-reach articulated or telescopic boom, or straight lifts in more confined spaces might call for a ‘scissor’ lift or a vertical mast.

Starting with the compact 80 VJR vertical mast model which has a working height of 7.65m (25ft), the range includes many configurations right up to the brawny telescopic boom 280 TJ which can reach a working height of 27.75m (91ft) while lifting a payload of 240kg (529lb). Where heavier loads need to be lifted the scissor-lift models come into their own, the 100 SC having a lifting capacity up to 680kg (1,500lb). The models are variously offered with diesel, electric or hybrid power.

Construction, installation and repair tasks are the obvious applications for Manitou aerial work platforms and indeed they are sold through T H WHITE Construction, but there are many other uses too. For example, the ever-increasing size of agricultural machinery such as combine and forage harvesters means that an aerial platform can make it much easier to access higher level inspection panels and parts. We have recently been using a Manitou 100 VJR when working on combine harvesters in our Marlborough depot (see photo).

If you would like to know more, our Construction specialist Steve Clucas-Tomlinson would be happy to talk through the options. Call him on 07860 593339.

Manitou’s new pivot-steer telehandler, the MLA-T, combines bags of sheer tear-out force with exceptional levels of comfort and durability, and is available now from T H WHITE Agriculture and Construction.

Designed in-house from the ground-up, the MLA-T features a tighter turning circle than competing machines and, unlike many pivot-steer handlers, it shuns standard torque converter transmission for Manitou’s own hydrostatic M-Vario Plus transmission, which is more commonly found on higher-spec, rigid-frame machines.

Powered by a Deutz 4.1-litre, 143hp diesel engine, the MLA-T has plenty of ‘grunt’ for all the construction and agricultural tasks that it will be required to perform. On the road it can be driven at up to 40kph, but a number of advanced technologies are built-in to deliver maximum power at slow speeds with the engine driving two separate axial piston motors, one of which is automatically disengaged above 20kph to reduce oil displacement, assist cooling and reduce fuel consumption.

An eco-mode can also result in a fuel cost saving of around £440 over 1,000 hours when full power isn’t needed.

Built for hard work in harsh environments, the MLA-T features a heavy chassis with widely spaced top and bottom pins to mitigate stress on the pivot joint and the prop shaft runs inside the chassis for maximum protection.

Matching equivalent rigid machines, the MLA-T can lift 3.3t at full articulation and up to 5t for a straight tipping load, while optional ‘intelligent’ hydraulics offer three most useful automated functions – Quick Lift which combines raising/lowering with extension/retraction; Bucket Shaker saves the operator from making repetitive movements; and Return to Load to automatically return to a pre-set position.

Completing the package is a comfortable working environment and brand new cab design with easy control via a JSM joystick and a digital display dash. Maintenance is easy thanks to a central greasing block.

We think you’ll love the MLT-A, particularly for livestock farming and construction applications, but you don’t need to take our word for it. If you would like to see and try the machine for yourself, please contact your T H WHITE Agriculture or Construction representative.

The answer is YES if you own or operate a fork lift truck, telescopic handler, or a tractor fitted with a loader.

You are required by law to ensure that the machine holds a report of thorough examination on an annual basis. This requirement of a ‘thorough examination’ is embedded in Health & Safety legislation; Lifting components are covered by the Lifting Operations and Lifting equipment Regulations 1998.

So if you have purchased a machine in the last 12 months your LOLER test is now due. If you bought over a year ago have you had your annual LOLER test? We offer fixed price LOLER testing for just £130, or the test is FREE with your annual service.

To book your LOLER test just contact one of our service managers: Marlborough 01672 518407 ; Frome 01373 465941;Toddington 01242 620211; Knockdown 01454 238181.

A LOLER test can cost as little as £130* – a small price for real peace of mind. *Mileage and VAT not included.
