A telehandler, also known as a lull or a zoom boom, is a machine widely used in the construction industry. It is similar to a forklift but has a telescopic cylinder, making it more a crane than a forklift, with the increased versatility of a single telescopic boom that can reach forward and upward from the machine. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as pallet forks or a muck grab.
In construction, the most common attachment for a lull is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads from and to locations unreachable for a standard forklift. For instance, teleporters have the capability to move palletized material from within a box truck and to place that cargo on to rooftops and other high locations. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient in a construction zone.
In the agricultural industry the most common attachment for a teleporter is a bucket, again the most common application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, reach forklifts have the ability to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
