The telehandler, also called telescopic forklift is mainly used in construction, agriculture and industry applications. The telescopic arm can reach a lifting height of up to 30 meters. Telehandler have a rigid frame. As a result, this material handling equipment is pretty solid. The maximum load can be up to 21 ton. They usually have a four-wheel drive, a diesel engine and a swinging rear axle to achieve a good off-road capability. For flexible and efficient use in any position, the operator of the telehandler can select different operating modes. The front-axle steering is suitable for a fast drive from A to B, the constant-velocity steering for the smallest turning circles and the crab steering for simultaneous forward, backward and lateral movement in confined, narrow spaces. There are various attachments available in order to equip a used telehandler for the upcoming task.
