Dieci Hercules 120.10 12T Mining Telehandler
The Dieci Hercules 120.10 12t Mining Telehandler is a high-capacity telescopic handler purpose-built for Australian mining and resources operations, delivering exceptional strength, stability and reliability in some of the country’s most demanding environments. With a maximum lifting capacity of up to 12 tonnes and a lifting height of 9.5 metres, the Hercules 120.10 is designed to handle oversized loads, heavy components and bulk materials safely and efficiently across mine sites.
Renowned for its robust construction, reinforced boom and long-term durability, this mining telehandler is ideally suited to open-cut and underground mining operations, processing plants, shutdown works and remote resource sites throughout Western Australia, Queensland and New South Wales. The machine’s superior stability and precise load control allow operators to work confidently on uneven ground, ramps and unprepared surfaces commonly found in mining environments.
Engineered for continuous operation, the Hercules 120.10 delivers extreme power with smooth, controlled movement, improving productivity during high-cycle materials handling tasks. Advanced soundproofing within the operator cab helps reduce fatigue during long shifts, while 2-wheel steering, 4-wheel steering and crab steering modes provide excellent manoeuvrability in confined plant areas, laydown yards and underground or tunnel-adjacent works.
To maximise uptime in harsh mining conditions, the Hercules 120.10 is built with heavy-duty components designed for extended service intervals, reducing maintenance requirements and total cost of ownership. This makes it a reliable solution for mining operators who demand consistent performance in high-use, remote and abrasive environments.
The Dieci Hercules mining telehandler range offers outstanding versatility through a wide selection of mining-ready attachments, allowing the machine to be configured for site-specific tasks. Available accessories include winches, heavy-duty forks, buckets, elevated work platforms (EWPs), bale clamps, cylinder grabs and wheel handlers, enabling safe and efficient handling of equipment, consumables and materials across the mine site.
Combining exceptional lifting capacity, advanced steering systems, operator comfort and proven durability, the Dieci Hercules 120.10 Mining Telehandler is a powerful and dependable choice for Australian mining companies seeking a high-capacity telehandler built to perform reliably in extreme conditions across WA, QLD, NSW and regional Australia.
We sell a full range of heavy-duty mining telehandlers in Australia and also a range of compact 2 to 7t telehandlers.

Hercules 120.10 Mining Telehandler | Frequently Asked Questions
What engine powers the Hercules 120.10 mining telehandler?
The Dieci Hercules mining 120.10 telehandler is equipped with a powerful 139hp / 104 kW diesel engine that is manufactured by FPT. The turbo charged engine is Stage IIIA/Tier 3 emissions compliant, resulting in an exceptionally powerful, reliable and efficient heavy-duty telehandler.
How much can the Hercules 120.10 mining telehandler lift?
The Dieci Hercules 120.10 mining telehandler delivers exceptional heavy-lifting performance, with a maximum lifting capacity of up to 12 tonnes, placing it among the most capable telehandlers available for demanding mining and industrial applications. This impressive capacity enables the safe handling and positioning of large structural components, heavy equipment, processing plant machinery, and oversized loads that are beyond the capabilities of conventional telehandlers.
In Australian mining operations, the Hercules 120.10 is ideally suited to maintenance shutdowns, processing plant construction, mine site infrastructure upgrades, and heavy equipment installation tasks. It can be used to position crushers, conveyors, pumps, generators, and large mechanical components, providing a mobile alternative to cranes for many lifting applications. Its combination of high lift capacity and site mobility helps improve productivity, reduce reliance on additional lifting equipment, and support efficient material handling across mine sites and industrial facilities.
How big are the fuel and hydraulics tanks on the Hercules 120.10 mining
The Dieci Hercules 120.10 telehandler features a large 207L diesel fuel tank and an equally large 246L hydraulic tank. The powerful hydraulic system has a pump capacity of 160L per minute and operates at pressures up to 30 MPa (4351 psi) making for an exceptionally powerful telehandler well suited to a variety of heavy-duty tasks.
What are some examples what the Hercules 120.10 mining can be used for on Australian mine sites?
Dieci Hercules 120.10 telehandlers are typically used anywhere you need controlled lifting of extremely heavy components without immediately defaulting to a large crane.
For example, it can support infrastructure and civil construction projects such as lifting precast concrete bridge sections, placing large culverts, and handling structural steel for commercial buildings or warehouses. It’s also useful on major industrial builds like power stations, ports, and mining-adjacent processing facilities where oversized equipment and modular plant components need to be positioned precisely on site.
On large-scale Australian projects, machines in this class are often used for heavy logistics and shutdown-style works, such as moving large generators, transformers, and machinery during installation or maintenance phases. The advantage is combining high lift capacity with mobility, allowing heavy lifts to be completed efficiently across different parts of a site without constantly repositioning cranes.
