Telehandlers are large scale construction vehicles engineered to raise heavy weights and materials. These are considered basically a forklift and crane hybrid in terms of its size and capabilities. The boom is the telehandler's most important feature. It could be equipped with a range of attachments in order to allow it to complete other jobs.
By using the right lifting angle and extension an operator could remain safe whilst doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight. It is important to remember that if the arm is accidentally used wrong, the equipment could tip over dangerously 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 crane and a forklift. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane as it is able to reach up to high places. As it could easily raise tools or heavy things, the telehandler also resembles a lift truck. Furthermore, the arm looks like the end of a lift truck.
