The rod fits selected Manitou models. Before purchasing, strictly verify the length (295.50 mm) and cone dimensions.
When replacing the rod, check the condition of the sockets in the knuckle and cylinder. We also recommend replacing lock nuts and using lithium grease for joint maintenance.
Steering system play causes driving instability and machine wandering. A rod break during maneuvering with a load can lead to loss of control and machine tipping.
Rod 601218 connects the steering cylinder to the wheel knuckle.

Most TORS rods for construction machinery are equipped with grease nipples on the joints, allowing for regular lubrication and extending their lifespan.
In 1981, Manitou introduced the Maniscopic series – the first 4-wheel drive telehandlers. It was a breakthrough that required developing much more durable steering systems, such as the one this rod fits into.
