Manitou 78XE – specifications

The Manitou 78XE is a compact aerial work platform from the category of boom lifts, designed for use indoors and on paved surfaces. As a battery-powered lift, this model targets users who require a narrow and agile solution for work at height. The design omits an internal combustion engine in favor of an electric drive, enabling use in sensitive environments such as warehouses or production facilities.

The technical specifications highlight the focus on precision and space efficiency. With a width of 810 mm and a length of 1,890 mm, the unit can be maneuvered through narrow aisles. The ground clearance of 76.2 mm requires level surfaces to avoid obstacles. The 14x4.5 solid tires are non-marking and protect sensitive floors. The maximum speed of 4 km/h ensures safe positioning, while the turning radius of 1,700 mm facilitates turning in tight spaces. The lift time of 14 s and the descent time of 20 s define the cycle for reaching the working height. The platform, with a load capacity of 230 kg, provides space for one person and tools. The platform extension of 900.2 mm expands the horizontal working range. Power is supplied by a 24 V battery with a capacity of 180 Ah.

Within the product range, the 78XE is positioned as a specialized unit for light to medium-height work. The compact design makes it particularly suitable for tasks in areas with limited space, where larger machines cannot be used. The combination of narrow width and solid tires allows for use in environments where floor protection and maneuverability are priorities. The platform dimensions of 1,670 mm in length and 780 mm in width provide a stable standing area for the operator.
