At the French Innovagri show this week, Massey Ferguson has launched a new addition to its telehandler range, the TH.8043.

This is a 4.3t, 7.5m machine which the firm says has a new boom design promising better working angles and an improved boom suspension system.

Other key performance data includes a 190l/min load-sensing hydraulic system and a four-pot, 3.4-litre motor supplying 130hp working a two range, hydrostatic transmission. Despite the increased lift capacity, it has the same dimensions as the 3.8t rated TH.7038.
