Centre stage on the Kramer stand will be its latest KT144 telehandler. Although, the smallest model in the portfolio it offers a 1,450kg lift capacity and 4.5m maximum reach.

The KT144 is equipped with a Stage V 25hp Yanmar engine which can be optionally upgraded to the larger 45hp unit, also Yanmar built.

The 25hp model comes fitted with 36.4l/min hydraulic pump, while the larger 45hp option comes fitted with a 42l/min pump with a further option of upgrading this to the 70l/min.

The patented Smart Attach system removes the need for the operator to leave the cab to remove hoses etc.

The larger engine also sees the hydrostatic transmission speed increase from 20km/h to 30km/h. Its compact dimensions leaves it under 2m high, 1.6m wide and 3m in length (without bucket).

Smart Attach

Also making its show debut will be the fully hydraulic quick hitch. Known as Smart Attach, the new system allows hydraulically operated attachments to be coupled automatically without the need for the operator to leave the cab and connect/disconnect hoses. A locking display means the operator can always see that the attachment is securely attached to the machine.
