A telehandler, also known as a lull or a reach forklift, is a machine commonly used in the construction industry. It is similar to a forklift but has a boom, making it more a crane than a forklift, with the expanded 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 pallet forks or a winch. In industry, the most widely used attachment for a reach forklift is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads to and from locations unreachable for a conventional forklift. For example, lulls have the ability to move palletized product from within a box truck and to place that material on to rooftops and other elevated places. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient in a construction zone. In the agricultural industry the most common attachment for a lull is a bucket grab, again the most widely used application is to transport from and to unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which in this case is a wheeled loader or backhoe loader. For example, telehandlers are able to extend directly into a high-sided trailer or hopper. The latter application would otherwise require a loading ramp, or something similar
