What is a telehandler and what is it used for?
A telehandler features an extendable telescopic boom that can move both vertically and horizontally. This allows loads to be placed at height and at distance.
Typical applications:
-
lifting and positioning pallets and building materials
-
loading and unloading on construction sites
-
working at height with a work platform
-
agricultural handling (e.g. bales and bulk material)
Thanks to its long reach, a telehandler is ideal for large sites and hard-to-reach areas.
Attachments and configurations
Telehandlers can be equipped with various attachments, such as:
-
forks for pallets
-
buckets for loose material
-
work platforms for working at height
-
clamps for specific loads (e.g. bales or pipes)
This makes one machine suitable for multiple applications.
