TL1055 Telehandler

Overview

The TL1055 is precision engineered to handle any task, offering stability, maneuverability, speed and power in any application.

Operator Station
Intuitive Control Layout All day operator comfort and efficiency is ensured through our simple, logical control layout.
Ease of Operation
Joystick Control The joystick allows three simultaneous boom functions and operates the auxiliary hydraulic function. It allows the option of a second auxiliary service for the use of work tools that require more than one hydraulic service.
Performance
Lift Height The TL1055 can effectively pick and place materials to a maximum height of 54.9 ft. (16.7 m).
Power Train
Transmission The TL1055 features a Cat PG145 power-shift transmission.
Versatility
Quick Coupler A manual IT quick coupler is standard on the TL-Series machines. For optimum versatility, an optional hydraulic quick coupler is available, allowing the operator to more easily change non-hydraulic work tools without leaving the cab.
Cost of Ownership
Ease of Access Cost of ownership starts with ease of service. All Cat Telehandler service points are accessible and major components are at ground level due to overall machine design.
Serviceability and Customer Support
Access All Cat Telehandler service points, including the combined transmission/hydraulic oil filter, are accessible and major components are at ground level due to the overall machine design.

Operator Station
Intuitive Control Layout All day operator comfort and efficiency is ensured through our simple, logical control layout.
Easier Access Cab entry and exit is both easier and more convenient due to the well placed handholds.
Operator Protection The machine provides full operator security with OROPS or EROPS protection.
Enhanced Visibility The TL-Series cab has improved visibility due to the use of advanced virtual design techniques.
Ease of Operation
Joystick Control The joystick allows three simultaneous boom functions and operates the auxiliary hydraulic function. It allows the option of a second auxiliary service for the use of work tools that require more than one hydraulic service.
Flow Sharing Three simultaneous hydraulic functions are achieved using a full flow sharing hydraulic valve. A load sensing variable displacement pump allows full hydraulic power even at low revs.
Performance
Lift Height The TL1055 can effectively pick and place materials to a maximum height of 54.9 ft. (16.7 m).
Reach Job site obstacles present challenges demanding a machine to place loads at greater distances - the TL1055 delivers.
Maneuverability The TL1055 offers improved maneuverability, allowing it to work productively in confined areas.
Steering Modes The TL1055 offers three steering modes (two wheel, crab and circle steer) to allow an operator to more easily position the machine. Steering modes are selected by a single three-position rocker switch. Steering position sensors are fitted as standard to all steering modes to be changed while moving.
Power Train
Transmission The TL1055 features a Cat PG145 power-shift transmission.
