ICARUS 40.17 Telehandler by Dieci: Reaching new heights

As Dieci Australia continues its mission to provide top-tier machinery solutions tailored to the evolving demands of the mining and industrial sectors, we proudly present the Icarus 40.17 telehandler. With its combination of superior lifting height, precision control, and robust design, the Icarus 40.17 is set to redefine operational efficiency on large-scale job sites.

Embedded in Dieci's tradition of Italian engineering excellence and innovation, the Icarus 40.17 exemplifies the same commitment to quality and performance that has been the hallmark of Dieci in Australia for over two decades. This telehandler is engineered to meet the demanding needs of the modern mining industry, where versatility, reliability, and ease of operation are paramount.

At the heart of the Icarus 40.17 is its impressive performance. Boasting a maximum lifting height of 16.6 meters and a capacity of 4,000 kg, this telehandler is ideal for tasks requiring both reach and strength. Powered by a 125 hp (93 kW) FPT engine, the Icarus 40.17 delivers both the power and efficiency needed to tackle challenging projects with ease.

This telehandler is designed not only to meet the basic lifting requirements but to exceed expectations in every aspect of operation. The hydrostatic transmission, combined with a servo-controlled 2-speed gearbox, ensures smooth and responsive control, even under the most demanding conditions.

The Icarus 40.17 is designed with versatility and precision in mind. Its advanced hydrostatic transmission, combined with the “inching” pedal command, allows for precise control even at slow speeds, ensuring safe and efficient operation in a variety of environments. The 4-in-1 joystick with proportional and simultaneous controls enhances the operator's ability to perform multiple tasks with ease, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of applications.

In addition to its impressive mechanical performance, the Icarus 40.17 offers three steering modes—2WS, 4WS, and crab steering—allowing operators to manoeuvre through tight spaces and challenging terrains with ease. The intelligent design of the control layout makes this telehandler simple, intuitive, and comfortable to operate, reducing operator fatigue and improving overall productivity.

Dieci understands the importance of durability and operator comfort in demanding job environments. The Icarus 40.17 is equipped with a high-resistance steel telescopic boom and independent outriggers with a transverse leveling device, ensuring stability and durability even on uneven terrain. The robust construction is complemented by a host of features designed to enhance operator comfort: 

• ROPS-FOPS Approved Cab: Provides maximum safety with a protective cell structure. 
• Soundproofing: Reduces noise levels, allowing for a quieter working environment. 
• Adjustable Steering Wheel: Height and depth adjustments to suit operator preferences. 
• Air Suspension Seat: Enhances comfort during long hours of operation. 
• Panoramic Windows: Offers a 360° view for better visibility and increased safety. 
• Semi-Automatic Air Conditioning: Ensures optimal climate control within the cab.
