Description
The Manitou 1050RT is a highly efficient and robust 2-tonne mini track loader engineered to deliver exceptional pushing power and material handling agility in severely restricted environments. Driven by a dependable 34.7 HP engine and featuring Manitou’s signature IdealTrax automatic track tensioning system, this machine eliminates manual adjustments while significantly reducing field downtime caused by track slippage. It serves as a vital compact asset within our parent track loader hire perth fleet, riding on durable rubber tracks that optimize ground floatation while completely safeguarding finished domestic pavements, driveways, and delicate commercial landscapes from heavy surface scuffing.
To unlock maximum productivity across structural landscaping and tight civil works, the Manitou 1050RT can be configured with an extensive selection of specialized attachment hire systems. It handles heavy-duty 4-in-1 buckets, high-torque earth augers, plant sweepers, and specialized trenching units effortlessly. These configurations allow building crews and landscape contractors to quickly distribute road base, scrape site levels, and clear rubble without manual labor. If your oncoming layout requires an even more compact machine width or steps into high-flow production capacities, you may also review the adjacent ASV RT-25 1.7T Posi Track Loader or the larger Kubota SVL65 3.8T Track Loader.

Booking is straightforward. You can request a quote online or speak directly with our Perth booking team on 1300 222 558.
