Ingersoll-Rand telehandlers VR518 to VR1056C – the American capacity-and-height logic: VR for Vertical Reach, the first digits as capacity in thousand pounds, the last as lift height in feet, C as generation
In the 1990s and 2000s Ingersoll-Rand ran, alongside rollers, compressors and Bobcat compact loaders, telehandlers for North American building construction – the VR range, which lifts pallets, roof trusses and masonry to storey height on sites. The type logic is the American convention of the class: VR stands for Vertical Reach, the first digits give the capacity in thousand pounds, the last the lift height in feet – a VR518 lifts 5,000 lb to 18 ft, a VR642 6,000 lb to 42 ft, a VR1056 10,000 lb to 56 ft – C marks the generation; the 8L is an older model with a different logic. The engines are Cummins QSB4.5 of 4.5 litres and Perkins 1004 and 1104 of 4.0 and 4.4 litres, mounted transversely in the frame as the layout with the driver seated beside the boom requires.

The register lists 9 versions with 73.8 to 85.8 kW, heights from 2,110 to 2,480 mm and service weights up to 14,301 kg on the largest model.
With the sale of the construction divisions – Bobcat and compact equipment to Doosan in 2007, road machinery to Volvo – the Ingersoll-Rand programme ended; the VR telehandlers were continued from 2007 under the Doosan name and then Bobcat. In Europe they are rare.
On used machines, operating hours, the condition of boom, wear pads and telescope chains, leak-free cylinders, load-moment limiter, axles and tyres and parts supply, which runs through Cummins and Perkins for the engines, are what count.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
