The Merlo Roto 50.26 is closely related to the Roto 50.21 and is built on the same proven concept of power, stability and versatility. The key difference is the additional telescopic boom section, which provides a greater lifting height and extended horizontal reach, while maintaining excellent precision and safety levels.

With its extended working range, the Roto 50.26 is particularly well suited for applications requiring load positioning at greater heights or longer distances, such as façade works, steel erection, industrial lifting operations and complex construction sites.
Thanks to the rotating turret, loads can be positioned efficiently without repositioning the machine, increasing productivity and safety on site.

The advanced ASCS (Adaptive Stability Control System) continuously monitors stability and automatically adjusts hydraulic movements based on load, outreach and stabiliser position. The telescopic boom, with internally protected hydraulic lines, ensures smooth and precise movements.

The multi-position stabilisers provide maximum flexibility, even on uneven ground or in confined working environments. As standard, the machine is pre-arranged for aerial work platforms and equipped with the hydraulic Tac-Lock quick attachment system.

Available versions:
