</TABLE>

          Inventory is carried at lower of cost or market using the
          first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for 64% and 61% of total
          inventory for September 30, 1994 and July 2, 1994,
          respectively.  The remainder of the inventory is costed
          using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.

          At September 30, 1994 and July 2, 1994, the FIFO cost of
          finished goods held for lease was $44 and $249,
          respectively.  The cost of this inventory is amortized to
          cost of sales as a percentage of lease revenues.


Note 3.

          On September 8, 1992, the Board of Directors authorized the
          Company to repurchase up to 1.5 million shares of its common
          stock.  In addition, on January 11, 1994 and February 1,
          1994, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an
          additional 500,000 and 1,000,000 shares, respectively.  Such
          repurchases will be in open market or privately negotiated
          purchases, as the Company may determine from time to time.
          As of September 30, 1994, a total of 2,647,122 shares were
          purchased pursuant to these authorizations.


Note 4.
          The United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA")
          has identified the Company as a potentially responsible
          party ("PRP") under the Comprehensive Environmental Response
          Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), liable for the
          costs associated with investigating and cleaning up
          contamination at the Lemberger Landfill Superfund Site ("the
          Site") near Manitowoc, Wisconsin.

          Eleven of the potentially responsible parties have formed a
          group (the Lemberger Site Remediation Group, or "LSRG") and
          have successfully negotiated with the EPA and Wisconsin
          Department of Natural Resources to settle the potential
          liability at the Site and fund the cleanup.  Approximately
          150 PRP's have been identified as having shipped substances
          to the Site.

          Recent estimates indicate that the total cost to clean up
          the Site could be as high as $25 million, however, the
          ultimate remediation methods and appropriate allocation of
          costs for the Site are not yet final.

          Although liability is joint and several, the Company's
          percentage share of liability is estimated to be 5% of the
          total cleanup costs, but could increase to 15% if no
          participation agreements are made between the LSRG and any
          other PRP's.

          In connection with this matter, the Company expensed $3.0
          million in prior years for its estimated portion of the
          cleanup costs.  In addition, the Company has notified its
          insurance carrier requesting reimbursement of incurred and
          future costs at the Site.  Settlement of this claim is
          uncertain; a recent Wisconsin Supreme Court decision did not
          require an insurer to pay similar costs.  Any recoveries
          from the insurance carrier will be recognized when received.

          The Company is involved in various other legal actions
          arising in the normal course of business.  After taking into
          consideration legal counsel's evaluation of such actions, in
          the opinion of management, ultimate resolution is not
          expected to have a material adverse effect on the
          consolidated financial statements.

          As of September 30, 1994, 37 product related lawsuits were
          pending.  Of these, twelve occurred between 1985 and 1990
          when the Company was completely self-insured.  The remaining
          lawsuits occurred subsequent to June 1, 1990, at which time
          the Company has insurance coverages ranging from a $5.5
          million self-insured retention with a $10.0 million limit on
          the insurer's contribution in 1990, to the current $1.0          
          million self-insured retention and $16.0 million limit.

          Product liability reserves at September 30, 1994 are $7.5
          million; $3.8 million reserved specifically for the 37 cases
          referenced above, and $3.7 million for incurred but not
          reported claims.  These reserves were estimated using
          actuarial methods.  The highest current reserve for a non-
          insured claim is $.4 million, and $.9 million for an insured
          claim.  Based on the Company's experience in defending
          itself against product liability claims, management believes
          the current reserves are adequate for estimated settlements
          on aggregate self-insured claims.

          Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial
          statements of the prior year to conform to the presentation
          for the quarter ended September 30, 1994.




Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations


Financial Condition at September 30, 1994
- -----------------------------------------

The Company's financial condition remains strong and has not changed
materially during the past quarter.  Cash and marketable securities of
$25.6 million are adequate to meet the Company's liquidity
requirements for the foreseeable future, including payments on the
line of credit and the stock repurchases authorized by the Board of
Directors.

</TABLE>

For the three months ended September 30, 1994, consolidated sales
increased 8.2% over the comparable period a year ago.  Net earnings
for the quarter were $3.8 million, or 49 cents per share compared to
$4.1 million, or 45 cents per share last year.  The improved first
quarter sales were the result of increases in our boom truck and
Foodservice divisions and the acquisition of Femco Machine Company in
the third quarter of Fiscal 1994.  The decline in net earnings was the
result of the return to a more normal seasonal pattern in the Marine
business and a slightly higher tax rate of 39 percent for the quarter
compared with 37 percent a year ago.

Sales and operating earnings for Cranes and Related Products increased
12.6%, and 81.7%, respectively for the first quarter compared to last
year.  These improvements were the result of increased productivity at
Manitex, which increased sales 175% compared to last year when it was
experiencing shipping delays caused by its plant relocation.  Also
contributing to the increase was the previously mentioned acquisition
of Femco Machine Company.

A strong domestic market in the Foodservice division has increased
sales and operating earnings 8.6% and 6.2%, respectively, compared to
the first quarter of last year.  Foodservice continues to see strong
demand for their recently introduced B-series ice machines.

Sales for the Marine segment were down 27.3% compared to the
comparable period a year ago.  The operating loss for the quarter was
$0.5 million compared to operating earnings of $0.2 million last year.
Last year's results were unusually high because of a ship grounding
that occurred in the first quarter.  Ship repair and maintenance work
are typically lightest during the shipping season which currently
conforms to Manitowoc's first and second fiscal quarters (July-
December).
