UK national equipment and crane hire firm 7522 Hewden has taken delivery of 30 new 5047 Genie GTH-2506 compact telehandlers with the latest advanced telemetry Trackunit Track & Trace device.
The system provides hour-meter reporting, location tracking and machine use rates. It also provides substantial security benefits such as geo-fencing, motion alarms and remote machine disabling.
The telehandler provides a lifting height of almost 5.8m, a lifting capacity of 2.5tonnes and 2tonnes at maximum height.
“We chose the GTH-2506 telehandler for its simplicity of operation and robust, compact design which is ideal for work on sites where space is tight,” Danny Williams, product manager for access equipment at Hewden.
“Plant and attachment theft remains a major issue in the industry, so with these new telehandlers fitted with the latest telematics and tracking devices, we’re tackling the issue and reducing the risk of downtime for our customers.”
