The telehandler is a construction vehicle that is engineered to lift heavy weights and materials. It is basically 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 a variety of attachments in order to allow it to complete other tasks.
By utilizing the right lifting angle and extension an operator can remain 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 equipment could dangerously tip over due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
The telehandler more resembles a crane in its visual manner, even if it has traits of both a crane and a forklift. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane as it can reach up to high areas. As it is able to easily lift heavy things or tools, the telehandler also performs like a lift truck. In addition, the arm looks similar to the end of a forklift.
