The Extendo 1544X Pettibone telehandler has a maximum lifting capacity of 15,000 pounds, with maximum lift height of 44 feet. Maximum forward reach for the telehandler is 29 feet.
The X Series telehandler has a 117-horsepower Cummins QSF3.8 turbo diesel mounted onto a side pod, which makes components and daily service checks accessible. Ground clearance is 19 inches, and the fuel tank holds 30 gallons. Foam-filled tires are standard.
In the X Series, formed boom plates provide the boom structure with greater strength while reducing weight. The design also minimizes boom deflection for better control and accuracy when placing loads.
An external, bottom-mounted extend cylinder reduces the load on wear pads by up to 50 percent. The cylinder location provides improved service access to internal boom components. Fastener-less wear pads also simplify service, and heavy-duty extension chains help to ensure stable boom functions.
Cylinder cushioning dampens the end of strokes—both extending and retracting—and also help to prevent the potential spilling of a load. The 1544X uses a single lift cylinder that improves operator sight lines and has twin hydraulic lines for tilt and auxiliary plumbing.
The operator cab includes ergonomic seat, pedal, joystick, and steering-wheel positions, and optimizes lines of sight in all directions. An analog/LCD gauge cluster comes standard, and an optional 7-inch digital display with an integrated backup camera is also available.
