A telescopic handler, also known as a teleporter or a zoom boom, is a piece of equipment widely 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 reach forward and upward from the machine. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as a bucket or a winch. In industry, the most common 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 example, reach forklifts have the ability to move palletized cargo from within a container and to place that material on to rooftops and other high locations. 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 reach forklift is a bucket grab, again the most widely used application is to transport to and from places unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, telehandlers have the ability to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a conveyor, or something similar
