DarkShadow73 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 To me it seems kind of strange to have suspension on a tele handler, because of the risk of tipping over especially when it does not have any form of outriggers. Yeah I've never seen a telehandler w/ suspension, or without front outriggers to stabilize when lifting. Quote

Lipko Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I'm getting mad. What does "oscillating mounting" rear suspension mean? That was the only info I was able to get about the suspension of telehandlers in a hour google search. Quote

Lipko Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 It seems they have "free oscillating" rear axles. I assume that means pendular suspension with no shock absorbers. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Well the diecast model one I have has pendular with no shocks.If you need any help feel free to get in touch,I have already made a auto stabilizing legs. Edited January 30, 2013 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
DarkShadow73 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I had one parked in my driveway for a couple nights while they were re-roofing our complex. I didn't see any type of shock absorber, I would imagine it does independent live suspension on each wheel, but no shocks. It was a standard JLG telehandler. Quote
