On the occasion of SAIE08 in Bologna, to be held from 15th to 18th October, two new machines will be launched, expanding the already broad range of telescopic handlers produced by FH – Faresin Handlers.
These two models, the 6.28 and the 7.30 Compact, already well known on the market and among the best sellers of the Breganze based manufacturer, have been completely renewed in terms of design, mechanics, components and comfort.

The 6.28 and 7.30 Compact have always featured 4 speeds, negative-positive brakes on the front and positive on the rear, and reaching a maximum speed of 40 km/h.

What stands out immediately is the new design of the bonnet, much more attractive and elegant than the previous models, in line with the rest of the Faresin Handlers range.
The new layout of the engine casing has made it possible to greatly improve lateral visibility for the operator, taking the highest point of the bonnet below the line of the boom.
The engine has been rotated 180° with respect to the previous version, which facilitates access for maintenance.
To obtain this arrangement of the engine casing and its components, the machine wheel base has been lengthened to 2900mm. This makes it possible to equip the machine with 24” radial tyres, considerably improving the stability of the handler.
Modifications have also been made to the chassis, now higher performing, lighter, and structurally advanced.

Thanks to this new arrangement of the engine block, the in-line positioning of the radiator enables a horizontal flow of air to the radiator rather than the previous downward flow. This eliminates the annoying problems of dust and increases the effectiveness of the cooling system.

As regards the motorisation, the new 6.28 and 7.30 Compact versions are available not only with the Deutz 75 kW but also with the IVECO Nef 130 Hp - 94 kW Tier 3 engine, which guarantees superior performance in terms of power, reliability, and fuel savings.

The boom has been redesigned with a new, more high-performance geometry. In addition, a new suspension system for the boom has been developed that makes it possible, both without load and at full load, to absorb the shock on uneven terrain.

In terms of controls, the operator will now be able to use the new two-button joystick with crossover movement, and rollers to control the extension and retraction of the boom, fitted in the version with the Load Sensing proportional distributor, which allows the operator to use the machine exploiting all the performance potentials of the engine with high precision and reduced fuel consumption. The flow rate of the utility pump has thus been increased from 96 to 120 l/min.
