Accredited telescopic handler training is essential to ensure the efficient and safe utilization of the unit.

A telescopic forklift is meant to lift heavy objects utilizing an arm, that extends in segments similar to a telescope. To select a telescopic forklift, you need to take into consideration how the machine will be used and for how long. Required lift heights and work site terrain must be considered. Parts, cost and warranty are all factors involved in buying a telescopic forklift. If you are leasing, you will want to compare delivery costs, prices and terms.

Telescopic forklifts come in various sizes. Size influences the amount of weight that could be loaded onto the lift, and the heights which can be attained safely. A small- to medium-sized telescopic forklift is ideal for transporting materials into the back of a pick-up truck. Lifting heavier materials up higher would need a larger lift. Careful consideration of how the lift will be utilized helps ensures you will pick the best size for safety and stability.

When choosing this type of machinery, attachments even should be considered. Find out from the manufacturer what attachments are offered. There are bucket attachments, pallet attachments and different attachments used for specific reasons.

Work site terrain influences the variety of tires for the telehandler. Cushion tires are made of rubber all the way through, and are found on smaller units.

Pneumatic tires are usually on larger units utilized on varied, outdoor terrain where there might be dirt, rock, concrete and asphalt. They offer the best traction and articulation.
