For large-scale farms and agricultural businesses, versatility and reliability are essential requirements when choosing farm vehicles. In these environments, daily activities range from handling fodder to cleaning stables, and being able to rely on a single multifunctional solution means optimising time, energy and investments.

It was precisely this consideration that led Danish farmer Rasmus Nielsen to purchase the Agri Pivot T90 articulated telehandler, which he uses on his farm in Nibe, northern Denmark, where he manages around 630 cows alongside 350 hectares of farmland and pasture. Helping him make his choice was dealer S. D. Kjærsgaard, a key reference point in the agricultural vehicle market and the official DIECI dealer for Denmark.

The Agri Pivot T90 revolutionised the company’s operations, reaching 1,000 hours of operation in just 10 months and becoming an indispensable tool for both daily and seasonal tasks!

The articulated telehandler: the hybrid solution for farms

When a farm decides to invest in a new vehicle, the choice often comes down to a telehandler or a wheel loader. This was also the case for Nielsen: for his business, the aim was to find a high-performance, multi-purpose vehicle capable of maximising the return on investment and ensuring maximum efficiency in day-to-day operations.

The Agri Pivot T90 proved to be the ideal answer to his needs: a vehicle he was initially unfamiliar with, yet one that met every requirement. In fact, the articulated telehandler combines the best features of a wheel loader with the lifting and handling performance typically associated with a telehandler. The result is a hybrid vehicle designed to offer maximum versatility and adapt efficiently to a wide range of agricultural applications.

In fact, the articulated telehandler features:

  • excellent terrain adaptability thanks to its oscillating rear axle;
  • superior manoeuvrability, reliability and safety, thanks to its large exit angle (>30°) and load limiter;
  • Load Sensing-Flow Sharing hydraulic distributors, for simultaneous movements and improved response to commands;
  • faster operations with advanced boom functions: Shake, Wall, Memory, and Floating;
  • smooth, controllable forward movement, even with the boom at maximum power, thanks to the electronic accelerator and inching pedal.

For Nielsen, the cab also played a central role in the decision-making process, thanks to the raised central seat, which guarantees unrivalled 360° visibility.

1,000 hours with the Agri Pivot: features and advantages

Since its purchase, the Agri Pivot T90 telehandler has been used on the farm every day from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., supporting daily tasks such as:

  • feed distribution to all animals;
  • bedding management in the barns;
  • hay spreading;
  • yard scraping;
  • bale transport;
  • trailer towing, thanks to the hitch attachment.

Thanks to its compact dimensions, flexibility and handling features, the vehicle has been successfully deployed even in the smallest and tightest spaces, thereby speeding up operations that previously slowed down daily work cycles.

Some of the main benefits of the Agri Pivot T90 include:

  • compact size;
  • weight distribution;
  • visibility, even on the right-hand side;
  • towing force;
  • lifting capacity;
  • reliability;
  • adaptability to various applications, thanks to its compatibility with both classic telehandler and wheel loader accessories.

The value of the after-sales service

The success of Dieci telehandlers isn’t owed entirely to the parent company, but also to the dedicated and widespread presence of partner dealers around the world. These organisations share important values, such as customer care at every stage, from vehicle selection through to after-sales service.

For large farms like that of Rasmus Nielsen, even the slightest slowdown can mean becoming vulnerable on a dynamic and highly competitive market. In this context, the guarantee of fast local service represents an added value that further enhances the vehicle’s potential.

The dealer S. D. Kjærsgaard is DIECI’s reference point for the Danish market, and has offered competent and reliable support to the companies it works with since 1930.

With the Agri Pivot T90 and the constant support of S. D. Kjærsgaard, Nielsen is ready to take on any new market challenge at an even faster pace.
