A telescopic handler, also known as a lull or a reach forklift, is a machine widely used in the agriculture industry. It is somewhat like a forklift but has a boom, making it more like a crane than a forklift, with the expanded versatility of a single telescopic boom that can reach 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 widely used attachment for a telehandler is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from locations unattainable for a standard forklift. For instance, zoom booms have the capability to move palletized material from within a container and to place that material on to rooftops and other high places. 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 common application is to transport from and to unobtainable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, teleporters have the ability to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
