A telehandler, also called a lull or a zoom boom, is a piece of equipment commonly used in the agriculture industry. It is similar to a forklift but has a telescopic cylinder, making it more 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 pallet forks or a winch. In construction, the most widely used attachment for a lull is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move material from and to places unreachable for a conventional forklift. For instance, reach forklifts have the ability to move palletized product from within a container and to place that product on to rooftops and other elevated places. The latter use would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient on a job site. In agriculture the most common attachment for a lull is a bucket, again the most common application is to transport from and to unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically 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 loading ramp, or something similar
