Telehandlers are large scale construction vehicles designed 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 important feature. It could be outfitted with a variety of attachments so as to enable it to complete other tasks.
By using the correct lifting angle and extension an operator can be safe while doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is important to keep in mind that if the arm is incorrectly utilized by accident, the machinery can dangerously tip over because of the lifting weight being drastically cut.
The telehandler looks more like a crane in its visual manner, even though it has features of both a forklift and a crane. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane because it can reach up to high locations. Since it is able to easily raise equipment or heavy items, the telehandler also performs like a forklift. As well, the arm looks similar to the end of a forklift.
