A telescopic handler, also called a lull or a reach forklift, is a machine often 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 expanded 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 zoom boom is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads to and from locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For instance, telehandlers have the ability to remove palletized product from within a container and to place that cargo 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 agriculture the most widely used attachment for a teleporter is a bucket grab, and the most widely used application is to transport from and to unobtainable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, teleporters are able to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
