Lift More, Reach Higher with VersaHandler Telescopic Tool Carriers

Attachments Expand Abilities of Traditional Lift and Place Machines

The VersaHandler® telescopic tool carrier (TTC) is a unique product that crosses numerous markets and applications, replacing less effective equipment with multi-purpose machines that have an extended reach and superb lifting abilities in a compact frame.

Markets where telescopic tool carriers are used today include:

  • Agriculture, to handle hay bales and silage, or cleaning barns
  • Construction, for grading, backfilling and truss placement
  • Landscaping and nurseries, to plant trees, lift pallets of sod or load mulch
  • Rental, to replace small- to mid-size wheel loaders
  • Recycling facilities, for handling waste or loading storm debris

Four Bobcat telescopic tool carrier models bring together speed, strength and reach in a light yet durable frame. VersaHandler TTCs travel faster than most equipment — as fast as 18 mph in high speed — to speed up simple tasks. Lift and carry between 4,400 and 7,000 pounds in areas where other equipment can’t reach because of space restrictions. The extendable boom can lift higher and farther than conventional equipment, placing debris into trucks, piling snow or lifting building materials on jobsites. Bobcat telescopic tool carriers reach heights from 17 feet, 2 inches to 38 feet, 11 inches.

Not Just for Lifting and Carrying

Like other popular Bobcat equipment, a VersaHandler TTC can operate nearly a dozen approved attachments to maximize productivity and reduce other equipment needs. Connect non-hydraulic attachments without leaving the cab with the hydraulic Quick-Tach™ attachment mounting system. The new V417 has a Bob-Tach mounting system. Popular attachments for the TTC include:

  • Angle brooms for sweeping jobsites
  • Augers for installing new landscapes
  • Bale handler for farming operations
  • Buckets — four different options are available
  • Pallet fork for lifting building materials — as high as 38 feet with the V638
  • Tilt carriage that adjusts six degrees right or left with one easy control
