The telehandler is a construction vehicle which is designed to raise heavy weights and supplies. It is basically considered to be a hybrid of the forklift and the crane when it comes to its size and capabilities. The boom is the most important feature on a telehandler. It could be outfitted with various types of attachments so as to enable it to perform different other tasks.
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 really vital to remember that if the arm is accidentally used wrong, the machine can 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 traits of a crane and a forklift. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane since it could reach up to high places. Since it could easily raise equipment or heavy objects, the telehandler also resembles a lift truck. Moreover, the arm looks like the end of a forklift.
