Telescopic forklifts are engineered to have a pronged lift which utilizes an arm or a crane to come over the truck's top. These lift trucks allow you to lift the load a lot higher and have great control of where it should 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 known as a telescopic boom.
The load when placed on the lift truck can move both towards and away from the forklift cab, which is a unique feature that a traditional lift truck could not accomplish. The telescopic forklifts can provide both versatility and height. The telescopic lift truck is super common in the construction and agricultural industries. Furthermore, they are a great choice in circumstances where you must work with something that needs more control that a regular lift truck.
Frame Tilt
The frame tilt is a unique 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 within 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 a really helpful apparatus which is used to make certain that the frame is level before elevating the boom in rough environments.
Steering
Rear wheel steering is offered on several telehandler units, which is like a vertical mast type model. The majority of unit's offer 3 steering options which the operator could select; crab, circle and front steering. Like for instance, if the operator selects the "front" steering option, just the front wheels of the machine would react to the movement of the steering wheel.
