Merlo Telehandler Parts Guide: Avoid Downtime, Maximize Uptime

Why Merlo Telehandler Parts Still Matter—Even If You’re Renting

When you rent a Merlo telehandler, you’re trusting the provider to do more than deliver a machine. You’re trusting them to deliver performance, uptime, and safety. And behind every flawless lift or tight turn is a less glamorous hero: the parts.

At Westpeak Equipment, we don’t sell Merlo telehandler parts—we make sure our rentals never need emergency ones.

Because downtime isn't just inconvenient. It's expensive.

The Cost of Overlooking Parts Maintenance in Rental Fleets

Not all rental companies are created equal. Some cut corners to save money—using worn-out hydraulic systems, delaying brake replacements, or ignoring air filter schedules. The result? You pay the price on-site:

• A sudden breakdown mid-lift

• Delays due to overheating

• Risk of injury or damage from worn-out brakes or tires

Westpeak takes a different approach. Our Merlo telehandler fleet is meticulously maintained using OEM-grade components, handled by experienced technicians, and inspected before every rental. When your job depends on reliability, our commitment to parts maintenance makes all the difference.

What Goes Into Maintaining a High-Performance Merlo Telehandler?

Let’s pull back the curtain. Here’s what we check before your Merlo hits the site:

Hydraulic Filters and Fluid Integrity

Clean fluid keeps your telehandler responsive. We replace filters and test pressure regularly to eliminate drift or sluggish performance.

Brake Systems

Precision is everything. We inspect pads, calipers, and lines for wear so you can work without worry.

Cooling & Exhaust Systems

Overheating is a silent job-killer. We clean and inspect radiators and exhausts to keep your unit running through long shifts.

Electrical and Lighting Components

Operational safety relies on visibility and function. We replace worn lights, test fuses, and double-check electronics before delivery.

Engine & Transmission Health

Our in-house team runs full diagnostics to confirm every Merlo telehandler we rent out operates like it just rolled off the factory floor.

Merlo Parts Aren’t Just “Nice to Have”—They’re Engineered for Performance

Merlo doesn’t use generic components. Every filter, seal, valve, and bolt is designed specifically for the weight, reach, and stress loads unique to their Roto telehandlers. Using non-OEM or poorly maintained parts can cause:

• Reduced lifting power

• Loss of boom precision

• Faulty stabilizer deployment

• Overworked engines and fuel inefficiency

That’s why every rental at Westpeak is serviced using Merlo-grade parts, inspected with proprietary diagnostic software, and re-tested under simulated job conditions before it leaves our yard.

How Parts Impact Operator Safety and Productivity

A Merlo telehandler isn’t just a machine—it’s a crew member. Your operator depends on it to:

• Keep loads level while rotating

• Respond instantly to joystick input

• Maintain full hydraulic pressure at height

• Alert to mechanical errors before failure

One worn hose or failing solenoid can trigger downtime—or worse, an accident.

That’s why we replace components before they fail. Not after.

Your safety isn't a checkbox. It's our protocol.
