Mustang Manufacturing
The new Model 519 is a compact telehandler that offers 19 feet of lift height and 5,500 pounds of maximum lift capacity. A 64-hp Deutz diesel engine powers the 519, which has a two-speed hydraulic transmission for low-end power, while providing a quick transport speed up to 15 mph. To maximize maneuverability, the 519 features three steering modes — 2-wheel, 4-wheel and crab-steer.
Tri-State Tower, a Midwest telecommunications contractor, recently rented the Mustang 519 to help build a series of guy towers. “We previously used skid loaders for this type of job,” said Todd Hughes, director of business development. “The crew likes the increased lift capacity and extra height.”
