Merlo TF50.8T‑170‑HF
The Merlo TF50.8T‑170‑HF is a high-capacity telehandler designed for intensive loading and unloading operations. It is powered by a robust 170 hp engine and a heavy-duty High-Flow load-sensing hydraulic pump with flow-sharing delivering 160 l/min. Despite its high capacities, the TF50.8 remains compact with a total length of just 4.8 m, making it agile on busy sites and in confined areas. Standard features include chassis leveling (+/‑ 8°) and an ASCS display with weight indication, providing precise load monitoring and enhanced safety. The spacious cab offers excellent all-around visibility, and a reversible fan ensures optimal cooling of the radiator and oil cooler. The TF50.8T‑170‑HF combines power, precision, and versatility in a robust machine.

Merlo TF50.8TCS‑170‑HF
The Merlo TF50.8TCS‑170‑HF builds on the strong foundation of the standard TF50.8 with the addition of a CS suspended cab. This optional suspension system significantly improves driving comfort by absorbing vibrations and shocks during travel and work, reducing operator fatigue and increasing overall comfort. All core features, including the 170 hp engine, High-Flow hydraulics, and chassis leveling, remain unchanged, ensuring the same high performance and reliability. This version is ideal for intensive use in construction, agriculture, and industrial applications.

Merlo TF50.8TCS‑170CVTRONIC‑HF
The top model in the TF50.8 range is the Merlo TF50.8TCS‑170CVTRONIC‑HF, which adds Merlo’s advanced CVTronic continuously variable transmission to the TF50.8 platform. The CVTronic transmission allows smooth, stepless acceleration from 0 to 40 km/h without gear changes and provides extra torque at low speed. This results in better traction and control under heavy loads, easier maneuvering, reduced fuel consumption, and higher efficiency under varied working conditions. Combined with the CS suspended cab and all core features of the HF series — including 160 l/min High-Flow hydraulics, chassis leveling, and ASCS weight monitoring — the TF50.8TCS‑170CVTRONIC‑HF delivers exceptional power, comfort, and productivity for the most demanding tasks.
