The Bobcat T40.180 Construction Telehandler is built for construction projects where vertical reach is critical.
It suits large-scale builds, industrial sites, and projects where materials, access equipment, or personnel must be positioned safely at height.
Common issues include:
At this level, reach alone isn’t enough.
Stability, control, and compliance define whether work progresses safely.
High-reach telehandlers must integrate into site workflows, not disrupt them.
Typical use cases include:
The Bobcat T40.180 delivers reach without sacrificing control, making it suitable for complex, evolving sites.
Just as importantly, we’ll be clear when a different lifting or access solution makes more sense.
Delecca’s has supplied construction telehandlers to builders and contractors throughout Bendigo and regional Victoria for over 40 years.
We understand site work — from multi-storey commercial builds to regional shed construction and civil projects.
Our telehandler specialists work directly with project managers and contractors to match machines to actual site requirements: lift height, reach, compliance documentation, and whether hire or purchase makes sense for your project timeline.
Before choosing a high-reach telehandler, confirm four critical factors:
If these reflect your project, the T40.180 is often the correct choice.
It delivers:
With a 17.5-metre lift height, 4,000 kg rated lift capacity, and a 100 hp Perkins engine, the T40.180 is built to work vertically without compromise.
This is a machine chosen for reach, but trusted for control.
Choosing correctly avoids overspending — or under-equipping — the site.
When the machine matches the height challenge:
When it doesn’t:
At height, the right machine matters.
The Bobcat T40.180 is a high-reach construction telehandler delivering 4,000 kg lift capacity to a maximum height of 17,466 mm, powered by a 100 hp Perkins engine.
With an operating weight of 10,580 kg and standing 2,520 mm tall on 400/80-24 tyres, the T40.180 features a comprehensive operator package including air-conditioned cabin, suspension seat, smart joystick with forward/reverse control, 5-inch Bluetooth display, and reverse camera.
The machine comes certified for man platform operations with boom wiring harness, remote control capability, engine idle control, and mandatory boom stop safety features — making it suitable for construction sites requiring both material handling and elevated personnel access.
All other specifications and features match the Low Cab configuration.
All Bobcat Construction Telehandlers supplied by Delecca’s come with a 2 year / 2,000 hour bumper-to-bumper warranty, covering the machine end to end for manufacturing defects and faults.
This warranty is backed by local parts availability and factory-trained technicians, so support is close at hand when it matters.
Commercial construction, shed builds, civil projects, general contractors
The T40.180 suits construction projects where working at height is a core requirement.
It’s commonly used on multi-storey builds, large industrial sites, and projects where materials or access equipment must be positioned safely at significant height.
If vertical reach is central to the job, this model is often the right fit.
The T40.180 may not be the best choice if most lifting happens at lower heights, site layouts are tight, or a standard telehandler can comfortably handle the work.
On projects where reach is occasional rather than constant, smaller or mid-size telehandlers are often more efficient.
Most construction customers hire the T40.180 for project-specific work, particularly where high-reach requirements are temporary.
Purchase can make sense for contractors regularly working on large or vertical builds. You can explore buying options on our telehandlers for sale page.
The decision usually comes down to project length and frequency of high-reach work.
The T40.180 is supplied with a 2 year / 2,000 hour bumper-to-bumper warranty.
When configured for man-platform use, it supports compliant personnel lifting setups.
Delecca’s provides local parts availability and experienced technicians to help keep machines safe, compliant, and operational on site.
Our telehandler specialists understand high-reach construction: lift capacity at 18 metres, man platform certification, and keeping multi-storey projects on schedule.
