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