The telehandler is a construction vehicle which is designed to lift heavy weights and materials. It is really considered to be a hybrid of the crane and the forklift in terms of its size and capabilities. The boom is the most prominent feature on a telehandler. It can be equipped with different kinds of attachments in order to allow it to complete other jobs.
By using the right lifting angle and extension an operator can be safe whilst doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is important to remember that if the arm is accidentally used wrong, the machine can dangerously tip over due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
The telehandler looks more like a crane in its visual manner, even though it has features of both a crane and a forklift. The big extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane since it is able to reach up to high areas. As it can easily lift tools or heavy objects, the telehandler also resembles a lift truck. In addition, the arm looks like the end of a lift truck.
