Telehandlers are big scale construction vehicles engineered to raise heavy weights and materials. These are considered basically a forklift and crane hybrid when it comes to its size and capabilities. The boom is the telehandler's most important feature. It is able to be equipped with a variety of attachments so as to enable it to perform other tasks.
By using the correct lifting angle and extension an operator could be safe whilst doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is very vital to keep in mind that if the arm is accidentally used wrong, the machinery 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 big extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane as it is able to reach up to high places. Because it could easily lift equipment or heavy items, the telehandler also performs like a lift truck. Moreover, the arm looks similar to the end of a forklift.
