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 trying to find Manitou Forklifts in and around Stirlingshire bear in mind that faulty brakes on a used / second-hand forklift can result in severe injury as well as damage to goods and equipment. The importance of good brakes on a forklift cannot be over-emphasised.
