A telescopic handler, also known as a lull or a reach forklift, is a piece of equipment widely used in the construction industry. It is somewhat like 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 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 widely used attachment for a zoom boom is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move material to and from locations unattainable for a standard forklift. For example, lulls have the ability to move palletized cargo from within a container and to place that cargo on to rooftops and other elevated locations. The latter use would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient on a job site.
In the agricultural industry the most widely used attachment for a telehandler is a bucket, again the most common application is to move loads from and to unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, lulls are able to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
