INTRODUCTION
- The telescopic handler can be used with inter-
changeable equipment, called attachments.
- A wide range of attachments, specially designed and
suitable for the telescopic handler is available and
approved by GEHL.
- Attachments are delivered with a load chart applica-
ble to the telescopic handler. The operator's manual
and the load chart should be kept in the place pro-
vided in the telescopic handler. For standard attach-
ments, their use is covered by the instructions con-
tained in this manual.
- Some particular uses require an adaptation of the
attachment, which is not provided in the listed
options. Consult your dealer.
WARNING
Only attachments approved by the manufac-
turer are to be used on GEHL telescopic han-
dlers (see chapter: 7 - ATTACHMENTS: TECH-
NICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF ATTACHMENTS).
The manufacturer's liability will be denied in
case of modification or adaptation without the
manufacturer’s approval.
WARNING
Maximum loads are defined by the capacity of
the telescopic handler, based on the attach-
ment’s mass and center-of-gravity. If an
attachment has less capacity than the tele-
scopic handler, never exceed the attachment’s
limit.

ATTACHMENTS
IMPORTANT:
Certain attachments may, when the
boom is lowered and retracted, come into contact
with the front tires and cause damage to them, if
the attachment is tilted forward. TO AVOID THIS
RISK, EXTEND THE BOOM SO THAT SUCH
CONTACT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
