Telehandler
A telehandler, or telescopic handler, is a versatile piece of construction equipment that combines the features of a forklift and a crane. It has a telescoping arm that can extend and retract, allowing it to lift heavy loads to various heights and reach over obstacles. Telehandlers are commonly used in construction, agriculture, and industrial settings for tasks such as moving materials, stacking pallets, and loading trucks.
Equipped with different attachments, such as forks, buckets, or lifting jibs, a telehandler can perform a wide range of functions. This adaptability makes it a valuable tool on job sites, where space and maneuverability can be limited. Operators must be trained to use telehandlers safely, as they can be unstable if not handled properly.
