The 18-meter lift height and 4-ton lift capacity make the Bobcat R-Series T40.180SLP the highest-ranged model around.
The superior stability and balance of our Telehandlers means that most jobs do not require stabilizers. We designed the machine with a low center of gravity, long wheelbase, heavy counterweight, and optimum weight distribution – so you can reach high and far while handling heavy loads with ease in any position. Bobcat Telehandlers are stable by nature!
The easy-to-use compact stabilizers ensure that you can use the machine’s full capabilities in the most confined working areas, even close to a wall. In addition to safe working practice, stabilizers give you a big advantage when you need to get close to a building without losing reach.
Man platform ready is an optional plug & play factory package for easy connection and operation of an aerial work platform, in full compliance with safety standards. Electrical and hydraulic lines are protected inside the boom, which requires no cable roll-up. Supplied remote control enables all boom movements to be operated remotely.
All vital components of your machine are located inside the highly rigid boom and frame. The frame itself features a robust box section. The machine’s cylinders, hydraulic systems and electric harnesses stay well-protected at all times. A steel bottom plate fully protects against shocks coming from the ground.
Bobcat telehandlers provide you with surgical-precision control at any height – thanks to the incredibly smooth transmission, our Boom Positioning System (if equipped), an ergonomic joystick, the inching function, and great visibility from the cab.
Bobcat makes it easy to simply start working – with a familiar automotive-style control layout, an interactive display, an all-in-one joystick with improved ergonomics, color-coded control elements, and automatic parking brake.
This unique Bobcat-patented system gives you a huge gain in productivity. The Boom Positioning System (BPS), active on tires and stabilizers, gives you a side-shift movement so you can put the load exactly in the right place. No need to re-position the machine – you get up to 1050 mm side-shift at 14 m height.
Because it means safety and productivity, we made numerous efforts to give to the operator an excellent visibility. Lateral visibility thanks to the low-profile engine hood, on the load thanks to the streamlined dashboard, and on top thanks to the optimized FOPS grid.
The joystick’s highly ergonomic handle was redesigned with operator feedback. The most important controls are located at your fingertips at all times: drive direction, turtle/rabbit modes, boom movements, auxiliary controls, and shift-on-the-fly settings. Smooth stiffness delivers very precise placements of the load!
The butter-smooth hydrostatic transmission provides your choice of precise movements or agility. Hydrostatic technology enables automatic drive, inching function for slow delicate approaches, and reduced machine inertia for safe operation on job sites.
A big machine can mean big challenges. But with the emphasis on maneuverability, Bobcat Telehandlers thrive on constrained job sites.
Enjoy the roomy cab with its great comfort features: easy cab access, suspended seat, 360 ergonomics (thanks to the central control panel), and many more. This first-class user experience is further enhanced by amazing visibility.

HVO ReadyThe line comes first — it sets the engine and the base configuration. Packages are then picked inside it, and they stack.
The basic configuration for anyone who needs a straightforward machine with no predispositions: rental, one-off jobs, a clear set with nothing paid for twice.
Your dealer has the full list of selectable options.
For those who need headroom: more power and factory predispositions for attachments, a man platform and a winch.
Your dealer has the full list of selectable options.
