A telescopic handler, also called a lull or a zoom boom, is a piece of equipment 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 increased versatility of a single telescopic boom that can reach upward and forward from the vehicle. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as pallet forks or a muck grab. In industry, 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 unattainable for a standard forklift. For instance, reach forklifts have the capability to remove palletized product 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 agriculture the most widely used attachment for a reach forklift is a bucket grab, and the most common application is to move loads from and to unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, telehandlers are able to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar
