Telescopic forklifts are designed to have a pronged lift which utilizes a crane or an arm to come over the truck's top. These kinds of lift trucks enable you to raise the cargo much higher and have great control of where it must go at those heights. This extra control is due to the fact that you are moving the load on the crane's end, that is called a telescopic boom.
The load is also able to move both towards and away from the forklift cab as well and this different feature is something that basic forklifts are unable to do. The telescopic forklifts are able to provide both height and versatility. The telescopic forklift is really popular in the agricultural and construction industries. Moreover, they are a good choice in circumstances where you might need to work with something which needs more control that a regular lift truck.
Frame Tilt
The frame tilt is a particular feature that is common to telehandlers. The operator could activate controls to change the lateral or side to side angle of the frame. This particular frame could be moved 10 to 15 degrees in either direction from horizontal. There is a liquid filled tube that 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 that indicates the lateral angle of the frame relative to the ground. This is a really handy apparatus that is used to make certain that the frame is level before elevating the boom in rough environments.
Steering
There are some models of telehandlers that offer rear wheel steering, like a vertical mast type model. The majority of unit's offer 3 steering options which the operator may choose; front, crab and circle steering. For instance, if the operator selects the "front" steering option, only the front wheels of the machinery will react to the movement of the steering wheel.
