A telescopic handler, also known as a teleporter or a reach forklift, is a piece of equipment 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 reach forward and upward from the vehicle. The boom can be fitted with different attachments, such as pallet forks or a winch. In industry, the most common attachment for a teleporter is pallet forks and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from places unattainable for a standard forklift. For example, lulls have the capability to remove palletized material from within a box truck and to place that product 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 common attachment for a teleporter is a bucket, and the most widely used application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a 'conventional machine' which is typically 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 conveyor, or something similar
