Chassis GVW
The HT 22 telescopic hookloader is engineered for heavy container handling on 26–28 t trucks. The sliding system and optional articulation adapt easily to various container lengths, ensuring precise positioning and smooth, controlled handling during loading, unloading and tipping. A robust build and broad standards support make the HT 22 a reliable choice for demanding environments. The articulated 'A' version reduces the loading angle and the risk of spillage — and optimises positioning of both short and long containers on the truck.
Articulated movement (A version)
The articulated arm of the 'A' version reduces the loading angle and the risk of spillage. It also optimises positioning of both short and long containers on the truck, ensuring good weight distribution and load stability. Ideal for tight spaces where minimal ground clearance is required.
Heavy container handling for 26–28 t chassis
A 22-tonne lifting capacity and container length up to 7,800 mm make the HT 22 a powerful solution for heavy container logistics, recycling and construction. The robust build and broad configuration range adapt to varied applications and container standards (NF, DIN, SCAN, CHEM, ACTS).
V Drive versatility
At the cutting edge of controller technology, the V Drive offers intuitive day-to-day operations. The screen's versatility lets you manage all options, connected systems and accessories from a single controller. Five screen modes adapt to the handling phase, application and driver habits.

The stated outreaches are measured at a 20° boom angle and are therefore not maximal. When mechanical extension booms are used, the loads in the load charts must be reduced by the weight of the extension booms.
