One day in 1957, Marcel Braud, the founder of Manitou, thought up the principle of an original device by turning around the shape of a farm tractor and adding to it a lifting mast and hydraulic steering?
Thus the world's first rough-terrain forklift-truck was born. It proved the company's success and led to it becoming world famous. Manitou now has a presence in over 120 countries.
If you are looking for Manitou Forklifts in and around Lanarkshire be aware that forklifts are peculiar machines. Their age is not necessarily a big concern unless they are need to be in use for anything in excess of 6 hours a day.
