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