Telehandlers are large scale construction vehicles engineered to lift heavy weights and materials. These are considered basically a forklift and crane hybrid in terms of its capabilities and size. The boom is the telehandler's most prominent feature. It is able to be outfitted with different kinds of attachments in order to allow it to carry out other jobs.
By utilizing the correct lifting angle and extension an operator can remain safe whilst doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is very vital to bear in mind that if the arm is wrongly utilized by accident, the equipment can tip over dangerously due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
The telehandler more resembles a crane in its visual manner, even if it has features of both a crane and a forklift. The large extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane because it could reach up to high locations. Because it can easily raise tools or heavy items, the telehandler also resembles a forklift. As well, the arm looks similar to the end of a forklift.
