A telehandler, also known as a lull or a reach forklift, is a machine widely used in the agriculture industry. It is similar to a forklift but has a boom, making it more like a crane than a forklift, with the increased versatility of a single telescopic boom that can extend forward and upward from the machine. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a muck grab. In construction, the most common attachment for a reach forklift is pallet forks and the most common application is to move material from and to places unattainable for a standard forklift. For example, lulls have the capability to move palletized product from within a box truck and to place that product on to rooftops and other elevated locations. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient on a work site. In agriculture the most widely used attachment for a reach forklift is a bucket grab, and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from places unreachable 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 loading ramp, or something similar
