Telehandlers are large scale construction vehicles engineered to lift heavy weights and materials. These are considered mainly a crane and forklift hybrid in terms of its capabilities and size. The boom is the most important feature on a telehandler. It can be equipped with various types of attachments so as to allow it to complete different other tasks.
By utilizing the right lifting angle and extension an operator can remain safe while doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is really vital to remember that if the arm is incorrectly utilized by accident, the machine can tip over dangerously due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
In its visual manner, the telehandler looks more like a crane, though it has features of a crane and a forklift. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane because it can reach up to high areas. As it could easily raise heavy things or equipment, the telehandler also resembles a forklift. In addition, the arm looks like the end of a lift truck.
