The Manitou MLT 737-130 PS PLUS is a model in the Manitou Telescopic Forklift series. The engine delivers 130.8 hp (96.2 kW), has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 3,605.2 cm³. The engine comes from Deutz. Torque is 500 Nm. The machine is 2,170 mm high. The unladen weight is 7,700 kg. The wheelbase measures 2,804.2 mm. Ground clearance is 61 mm. The fuel is diesel. Maximum torque is reached at 1,600 rpm. The pump delivers 150.3 l/min. The hydraulic tank holds 136.3 litres. Working pressure is 270 bar. Lift height is 6,950 mm. The Manitou Telescopic Forklift series covers 111 models. Rated output within it ranges from 40.3 to 216.3 hp; the MLT 737-130 PS PLUS sits in the middle of that range with 130.8 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the MLT 940 L -120 LSU below it with 123.8 hp and the MHT 860 L Turbo above it with 131.9 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 1,154.4 to 28,350 kg; here the MLT 737-130 PS PLUS sits in the lower part of that range with 7,700 kg. 731 Manitou models across 35 series are on record.

Manitou MT – how lift height and capacity hide inside the model number

Manitou's MT range is the French manufacturer's classic telehandler line for construction and agriculture, spanning lift heights from 4 to 18 metres and capacities from 2 to 4 tonnes. Both figures are encoded in the type number at once: on the MT 420 H, the "4" reflects a 4.35 m lift height at 2,000 kg capacity; the MT 625 H offers 5.85 m and 2.5 t; and the large MT 1840 reaches 17.55 m at 4 t — so the first digit group roughly codes lift height in metres, the second capacity in hundreds of kilograms.

Suffix letters such as "H" mark particularly compact, manoeuvrable versions for tight sites, while lines like MT-X or MRT (rotating telehandlers) form separate sub-ranges for extended reach or 360° slewing.

Models recorded in the database span engine outputs of 18 to 159 kW, own weights of 1,154 to 28,350 kg, and displacement of 1,147 to 6,600 cm³ across 3 to 4 cylinders — the bucket therefore covers everything from compact farmyard telehandlers to heavy construction machines, represented by models such as MT 523, MT 620, MT 732 or MT 932.

When buying a used telehandler, the condition of the telescopic boom and its slide pads, plus the lift and tilt hydraulic cylinders, matter most — play in the fully extended boom is a typical wear sign. It's also worth checking the load chart: the stated rated capacity only applies at short reach, and the permissible load drops sharply as the boom extends.

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.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
