The telescopic forklift would typically have a prolonged lift which uses a crane or arm to come over top of a truck. This particular kind of forklift would allow you to lift loads 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, which is called a telescopic boom.
The load could also move both away from and towards the forklift cab too and this different feature is something that regular forklifts cannot do. The telescopic forklifts could offer both height and versatility. The telescopic forklift is super common within the agricultural and construction industries. Additionally, they are a great choice in circumstances where you may have 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 can activate controls to change the lateral or side to side angle of the frame. This frame can 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 frame's lateral angle relative to the ground. This is a really handy device which is used to ensure the frame is level before elevating the boom in rough environments.
Steering
There are some units of telehandlers which provide rear wheel steering, like a vertical mast type unit. The majority of unit's provide 3 steering options which the operator can choose; front, crab and circle steering. Like for example, if the operator chooses the "front" steering option, just the machine's front wheels will react to the steering wheel's movement.
