A telescopic handler, also known as a teleporter or a zoom boom, is a machine often 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 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 industry, the most common attachment for a telehandler is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move material from and to locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For example, reach forklifts have the ability to remove palletized product from within a container 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 in a construction zone. In agriculture the most widely used attachment for a lull is a bucket, and the most widely used application is to move loads from and to unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, zoom booms are able to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar
