Telehandlers are big scale construction vehicles engineered to lift heavy weights and supplies. These are considered mainly a forklift and crane hybrid in terms of its size and capabilities. The boom is the most prominent feature on a telehandler. It can be outfitted with different kinds of attachments so as to enable it to perform various other jobs.
By utilizing the correct lifting angle and extension an operator could remain safe whilst doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is essential to keep in mind that if the arm is wrongly used by accident, the equipment could dangerously tip over due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
In its visual manner, the telehandler looks more like a crane, although it has features of a crane and a forklift. The big extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane as it is able to reach up to high places. As it can easily raise equipment or heavy items, the telehandler also resembles a lift truck. In addition, the arm looks similar to the end of a lift truck.
