A telehandler, also called a teleporter or a zoom boom, is a piece of equipment often used in the agriculture industry. It is somewhat like 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 upward and forward from the vehicle. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a muck grab.
In construction, the most common attachment for a telehandler is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads from and to locations unreachable for a standard forklift. For example, telehandlers have the capability to remove palletized cargo from within a box truck and to place that material on to rooftops and other high 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 widely used attachment for a teleporter is a bucket grab, and the most widely used 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 example, 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
