A telehandler, also called a teleporter or a reach forklift, is a piece of equipment commonly used in the construction 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 reach upward and forward from the machine. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a muck grab. In construction, the most common attachment for a lull is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a conventional forklift. For example, teleporters have the ability to move palletized cargo from within a trailer and to place that cargo on to rooftops and other high places. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient on a work site. In the agricultural industry the most widely used attachment for a zoom boom is a bucket grab, and the most common application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For instance, zoom booms have the ability to reach directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
