Pettibone adds telematics to telehandlers

Pettibone has launched a telematics system for its telehandlers, the company announced. X-Command is now available on the company’s X-Series telehandlers, Cary-Lift pipe and pole handlers and Speed Swing rail maintenance machines. X-Command can also be retrofitted for existing X-Series models currently in the field. 

Pettibone’s X-Command telematics system comes standard on new equipment and can be retrofitted on models already in the field.

X-Command allows users to remotely track a machine’s location and observe data points such as engine hours, fuel rate and usage, diesel exhaust fluid level, battery voltage and more. 

Equipment owners can access data and generate reports using the online X-Command dashboard on their computer or mobile device. The platform allows for quick and simple remote diagnosis of a telematics-equipped machine, potentially eliminating the need for certain field service calls. By ensuring maintenance is up to date, users can consistently increase equipment uptime and improve their overall return on investment.

X-Command comes standard for two years on new Pettibone X-Series Extendo and Traverse telehandlers.
