Heavy Equipment Guide's 2025 Top Introductions: Manitou
CTLs and skid steers remain in high demand — especially machines that deliver heavy hitting power and efficiency in a compact footprint. Manitou redesigned the five skid steers and CTLs at the larger end of its range with operating capacities from 3,250 to 3,600 pounds. These vertical-lift models feature a new lift-arm design that slopes away from the operator at the top of the arm, allowing for hydraulic lines to run inside the arm or underneath it and improving visibility.
