Reach New Heights in Versatility and Productivity With Bobcat Telescopic Tool Carriers

The VersaHandler™ telescopic tool carrier (TTC) does more than combine the speed, agility, versatility and strength of a skid-steer loader with the extended reach of a telescoping forklift. It also sets the standard in performance and comfort levels for telescopic tool carriers. In doing so, this rugged, multi-purpose machine saves you time and labor in a wide range of jobs—loading, digging and grading, handling and placing a variety of materials. It can handle construction, industrial and municipal jobs as effortlessly and efficiently as it does landscaping, agri-business and farm work.

Heavy-duty hydrostatic drive

Unlike the mechanical or torque converter type transmission found on most other telescopics, the VersaHandler TTC has a simple-to-use heavy-duty industrial-style hydrostatic transmission. This feature gives you on-the-fly shifting between high and low drive speeds and great wheel torque for digging and pushing. In addition, it has dynamic braking that is inherent in a hydrostatic transmission. You can inch up and down slopes without having to apply the brakes to keep the machine from rolling downhill. To work at low speeds, without sacrificing hydraulic power and wheel torque, choose work mode. Drive mode gives you quicker response when you press the accelerator pedal.

Excellent lift efficiency

A light, rigid, unitized main frame enables the VersaHandler TTC to lift as much as other heavier makes in its class. That makes it easier to trailer the machine long distances. An 18-mph travel speed saves you time when driving the machine between jobs.

Low-profile design

The engine is mounted to the right of the cab. That lets the boom ride lower for better all-around visibility and gives you easy access when servicing the engine.

Add in choice of steering modes—all-wheel steer, front-wheel steer or crab-steer—plus a fully enclosed, climate-controlled cab, a single hydraulic joystick for controlling boom and bucket functions, as well as a wide range of Bobcat® attachments and you have a value-loaded telescopic tool carrier worthy of the Bobcat name.
