Telescopic forklifts are engineered to have a pronged lift that utilizes a crane or an arm to come over the truck's top. These kinds of lift trucks enable you to lift the load a lot higher and have better control of where it goes at those heights. This extra control is because of the fact that you are moving the cargo on the end of a crane, that is called a telescopic boom.
The load when positioned on the lift truck could move both away from and towards the forklift cab, that is a different feature which a regular forklift is unable to accomplish. The telescopic forklifts could provide both versatility and height. The telescopic lift truck is super popular in the agricultural and construction businesses. Moreover, they are a great choice in circumstances where you must work with something which needs more control that a regular lift truck.
Frame Tilt
A unique feature common to telehandlers is the frame tilt. Operators can activate the lateral controls in order to move the frame's angle from side to side. This particular frame can be moved 10 to 15 degrees in either direction from horizontal. There is a tube filled with liquid which is curved and mounted in the cab. This is the level indicator or frame tilt indicator and works like a carpenter's level. It has a bubble indicator which indicates the lateral angle of the frame relative to the ground. This is an extremely helpful apparatus that is utilized to ensure the frame is level prior to elevating the boom in rough environments.
Steering
There are several units of telehandlers which provide rear wheel steering, like a vertical mast type model. Most unit's provide 3 steering options that the operator can choose; crab, circle and front steering. Like for instance, if the operator chooses the "front" steering option, just the equipment's front wheels would react to the steering wheel's movement.
