Speed Control:
Variable speed control from 0 to maximum, allowing precise inching and acceleration.
Drive Modes:
Typically 2WD/4WD selectable modes and potentially a 'creeper' mode for very slow, controlled movements.
Overall Length:
Highly variable based on boom configuration and attachment, but typical range is 5-7 meters.
Overall Height:
Typically 2.5-3 meters in stowed configuration.

Telematics:
Modern telehandlers may include telematics systems for remote monitoring of machine health, location, and utilization, aiding fleet management.
Diagnostic Ports:
Includes diagnostic ports (e.g., OBD-II equivalent for engine, proprietary for other systems) for connection to diagnostic tools and software.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250-500 operating hours, depending on operating conditions and engine model.
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
Intervals vary significantly but often range from 1000-2000 operating hours for hydraulic fluid and filter changes.
Transmission Service:
Hydrostatic transmission fluid and filter service intervals are critical and detailed in the manual, often around 1000-1500 hours.
Engine Oil Type:
API CK-4 or CJ-4, SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30, specific viscosity depends on ambient temperature. Manual will specify AGCO or OEM approved oils.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
ISO VG 46 or similar hydraulic fluid, often specified as AGCO Power Fluid or a recognized equivalent meeting specific performance criteria.
Transmission Fluid Type:
Specialized transmission fluid or universal tractor transmission fluid (UTTF) may be specified for the hydrostatic drive.
