Telehandlers are multi-purpose machines that lift, move and place material. A telehandler — short for “telescopic handler” — accepts different attachments to lift, move and place materials ranging from bricks and gravel to lumber. These jobsite workhorses are often the first machines on the job and the last to leave because they can be used for many different applications.

Telehandlers are purpose-built for material handling and movement, and by attaching different accessories, these versatile machines can adapt to a variety of worksite tasks, including staging initial materials at the start of a job, lifting palletized and suspended loads and jobsite cleanup at the end of a job.

It is important to understand telehandlers and their uses in order to make the best recommendation for customers’ worksite needs.
