The telescopic lift truck would normally have a prolonged lift which utilizes a crane or arm to come over top of a truck. This kind of forklift would enable you to lift cargo higher and with better control. This additional control is because of the fact that you are moving the load on the end of a crane, that is referred to as a telescopic boom.
The load when positioned on the forklift can move both towards and away from the forklift cab, which is a unique feature which a regular forklift is unable to accomplish. The telescopic forklifts can provide both height and versatility. The telescopic forklift is really common in the agricultural and construction industries. Moreover, they are a good choice in situations where you should work with something which requires more control that a standard forklift.
Frame Tilt
A unique feature common to telehandlers is the frame tilt. Operators could activate the lateral controls to be able to move the frame's angle from side to side. This frame could be moved 10 to 15 degrees in either direction from horizontal. There is a tube filled with liquid which is curved and mounted within the cab. This is the level indicator or frame tilt indicator and works similar to a carpenter's level. It has a bubble indicator that indicates the frame's lateral angle relative to the ground. This is an extremely handy apparatus that is utilized to ensure the frame is level before raising the boom in rough setting.
Steering
There are several models of telehandlers that offer rear wheel steering, similar to a vertical mast type model. The majority of unit's offer 3 steering options that the operator could choose; circle, front and crab steering. Like for instance, if the operator selects the "front" steering option, just the machine's front wheels would react to the steering wheel's movement.
