A telehandler is also called a variable reach forklift, a zoom boom, a telescopic handler, teleporter, reach forklift, a boom lift, or a telescopic forklift. A telehandler is widely used in the agriculture and construction industry. This machine is somewhat like a forklift but has a boom (a telescopic cylinder) which makes it more like a crane than a forklift. It has the increased versatility of a single articulating or telescopic boom that can extend both forwards and upwards from the vehicle. Several attachments can fit on the end of the boom such as a bucket, pallet forks, winch or muck grab.
Regardless of the name, the equipment’s greatest hazard is its unsafe operation. Fortunately, with the proper training, this means the majority of telehandler incidents and fatalities can be greatly avoided.
