The Manitou ATJ 60 is a smooth operating and precise machine.

The operator is able make four simultaneous movements, including platform direction, machine rotation and lifting the boom. Four-wheel, two-wheel or crab steering modes are also selected by the operator.

Maintenance is simplified on the Manitou ATJ 60 with a self-diagnostic panel at ground level that can quickly detect fault codes. Manitou's EasyMANAGER telematics system also gives the ability to manage the unit's location, maintenance cycles and service warnings. The ATJ 60 has been engineered to comply with the new North American ANSI A92 standard.
