A telescopic handler, also known as a teleporter or a zoom boom, is a piece of equipment commonly used in the construction industry. It is similar to a forklift but has a boom, making it more like a crane than a forklift, with the expanded versatility of a single telescopic boom that can extend forward and upward from the vehicle. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as pallet forks 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 loads from and to locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For instance, lulls have the ability to move palletized cargo from within a box truck and to place that cargo on to rooftops and other high locations. The latter use would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient in a construction zone. In agriculture the most widely used attachment for a lull is a bucket, again the most widely used application is to transport from and to unobtainable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, zoom booms are able to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
