Telehandlers are large scale construction vehicles engineered to lift heavy weights and materials. These are considered basically a crane and forklift hybrid when it comes to its size and capabilities. The boom is the telehandler's most important feature. It is able to be outfitted with a variety of attachments so as to allow it to carry out various other jobs.
An operator can be safe while doubling or even tripling a telehandler's maximum lifting weight by using the right lifting angle and extension. It is important to remember that if the arm is accidentally used wrong, the machinery can tip over dangerously due to the lifting weight being drastically cut.
The telehandler looks more like a crane in its visual manner, even if it has traits of both a crane and a forklift. The huge extending boom arm makes it more similar to a crane since it could reach up to high locations. Since it is able to easily raise heavy items or tools, the telehandler also resembles a forklift. Also, the arm looks similar to the end of a lift truck.
