DEFINING SUPREMACY
The PANORAMIC handler range clearly demonstrates Merlo’s making an extremely competitive product in the marketplace. A
innovation and technology. The unequalled performance, the further demonstration of Merlo’s dedicated commitment to the
Load-Sensing hydraulic system, boom side-shift and frame design of high-tech machinery, the result of ongoing research and
levelling devices together with the unique BSS and EAS suspension development, and the experience acquired during forty years of
systems add up to another incomparable solution from Merlo, leading the handler market.

The PANORAMIC handler family includes models in the 12m and 14m
class, with lifting capacities up to 3800kg.
Their exclusive features ensure maximum performance and ease of
operation in even the toughest of applications.
Outstanding safety
As a standard fitting, the longitudinal stability control mechanism locks
the telescopic boom if the machine’s stability limits are approached
(key-selected feature).
Total visibility
The PANORAMIC continues Merlo’s legendary 360° visibility around
the machine, particularly of both front and rear working areas.
Maximum comfort
The operator has the advantage of the widest handler cab currently
available on the market, together with a redesigned driver’s seat (with
optional air suspension) that ensures excellent comfort.

Easy access
Cab access is by means of a fully-opening, two section door (the upper
section can be locked open), and is further facilitated by self-cleaning
steps. The floor is flat and obstacle-free.

Hydrostatic transmission - today’s most advanced technology
This type of transmission is rapidly becoming the norm for small,
mobile equipment. It provides precise and accurate control, even
at high engine power and at travel speeds up to 40kph.
