Caterpillar's TH514 telehandler offers a load capacity of 5tonnes
178 Caterpillar's rugged, reliable and durable TH514 telehandler offers a load capacity of 5tonnes, lift height of 13.7m and a forward reach of 9.2m. The machine has load-sensing, flow-sharing hydraulics that allow all three boom functions to be operated simultaneously and proportionally. Power comes from a 74.5kW Cat C4.4 diesel that meets Tier 3/Stage IIIA emission regulations. As standard, a limited slip differential fitted in the front axle allows the 11tonne machine to work in tough conditions. A range of Cat work tools is available and a high visibility manual IT coupler comes as standard, with the option of a hydraulic quick coupler to allow work tool changes without leaving the cab.

The cab layout has been improved with better visibility and single lever joystick controls. A longitudinal stability indicator for the machine's forward stability monitors load safety.
