What the specifications mean
Choose the actual fork carriage, tire and stabilizer arrangement before using the load chart. Do not combine independent maximums into one operating point.
A high-reach telehandler comparison where the reduced capacities at height and reach deserve close attention.
Alternatives worth comparing
These are research paths, not interchangeable configurations or a ranked winner.Caterpillar TH1055 Telehandler
Maximum lift capacity, maximum height and maximum reach are separate points. Select the exact attachment and support condition on the load chart.

The reference transport dimensions use a stowed boom and specified carriage/fork treatment. The job still requires a chart check at its actual reach and height.

A brochure configuration is not an individual marketplace machine. Serial/PIN and build information are required for exact verification.
Used GTH-1056 inspection priorities
- Inspect boom extension equipment, fork markings, carriage locks and support/indicator systems using the manufacturer procedure.
- Record the exact serial/PIN, installed options and inspection limitations. These are purchase inspection priorities, not claims of a model-specific failure pattern.
Configuration-aware inspection: these checks are triggered by machine category, installed configuration and technology package. Brochure-listed technology must be physically present, active, licensed and calibrated on the used machine.
Hours, condition and ownership cost
Hours are context, not a condition grade. Duty cycle, idle time, maintenance evidence, wear-system measurements, structural repairs and installed technology should be evaluated together.
Cost drivers to model
- Compare placement coverage, setup space and machine condition with other high-reach candidates, including the actual attachment package.
- Use the ownership calculator with quoted repairs, actual scheduled hours, utilization and transport costs; leave unknown assumptions visible.

Model-reference transport profile
Transport reference
Reference measurements retain their configuration and verification status. Confirm the actual transport setup before booking.
Measurement basis: Boom retracted and lowered in the stowed position, standard tires and no forks; stabilizers stowed for transport.
Reference specifications can differ from the actual configured machine. Confirm dimensions and weight before booking transportation.
Use the equipment transport dimensions worksheet to record this GTH-1056's actual travel configuration, measured length, width and height, weight evidence and any detached components. Send the completed record to the carrier with the loading details.
