New PETTIBONE EXTENDO 1544X | Telehandler

Description

The 15,000-pound-capacity 1544X offers up to 44 feet of lift height for enhanced lifting capabilities in highway construction, pipe yard handling, and building sites.

FEATURES

X-Command® Telematics
A standard feature for 2 years on X-Series telehandlers, X-Command provides access to the real-time status of your Pettibone machine:

• Remotely monitor equipment location and data: Engine hours, fuel usage, DEF level, battery voltage and much more.
• Identify minor mechanical issues before they become serious.
• Minimize downtime through remote diagnosis.
• Get reports and notifications via web browser or mobile app.
• Increase ROI by ensuring maintenance is up-to-date, and by eliminating certain field service calls.
• Use current, accurate machine info to plan ahead on fleet maintenance.

Engine
Powered by a 120-horsepower Deutz® TCD 3.6 Tier 4 Final diesel engine with DEF and SCR aftertreatment. Side pod mounting offers easy service access while allowing excellent curbside visibility and ground clearance.

Drivetrain & Axles
Drivetrain and axles have been optimized to provide greater tractive effort with minimal tradeoff on top end speed.
• Dana 223 Series high steer axles provide excellent tractive effort.
• Tight steer angle capability provides efficient turning radius.
• Dana VDT12000 Powershift transmission offers 3 speeds, forward and reverse.
• Full time 4-wheel-drive with limited-slip front axle differential.

Boom Construction
Formed boom plates offer greater boom strength with less weight.
• Boom deflection minimized for better control and accuracy placing loads.
• Boom overlap nearly doubled to provide smoother operation and reduce contact forces on wear pads.
• Fastener-less wear pads simplify service.
• Bottom-mounted external extend cylinder significantly reduces load on wear pads; cylinder location also provides better service access to internal boom components.
• Compression tilt design allows for a smaller bore cylinder with same tilt force.
• Heavy-duty extension chains help ensure stable boom functions and longevity.

Capacity & Reach
The 1544X has a capable 15,000-pound load capacity rating. It achieves forward reach up to 29 feet and a maximum lift height of 44 feet.

Hydraulics
The Extendo's hydraulic circuit delivers exceptional controllability, efficiency and cycle speeds.
• Cylinder cushioning dampens the end of strokes – both extending and retracting – to prevent hard, jarring stops and avoid both wear-and-tear and potential load spills.
• Single lift cylinder provides operator with clear sight lines.
• Twin lines for tilt and auxiliary plumbing.

Steel Tanks
Damage-resistant, all-steel fuel and hydraulic tanks. Fuel tank provides ample fuel volume for a full day's work at 100% load.

Operator Station
The operator cab includes ergonomic seat, pedal, joystick and steering wheel positions. Available as an open canopy or enclosed cab, it features an all-steel interior with water-resistant components for easy washdown.
• New analog/LCD gauge cluster.
• Enhanced climate control system.
• Split door design allows upper half to lock in the open position.
• Flat, bolt-in glass can easily be removed or replaced.
• Openable rear window improves air flow while keeping cab dry.
• Lockable storage area under seat for manual, gloves and tools.

Electrical
• Split-system electrical panels allow for easier service of individual circuits.
• Heavy-duty bright LED lighting.
• Weather-sealed connections.

Service
• Easy access to all filters and fluid level indicators.
• Lockable fuel-fill in clean, accessible location.
• Inside of boom easily accessible for service.
• Non-tensioned boom hoses offer long service life.
