Telehandlers – 5 things worth knowing about them

Telehandlers are devices that work perfectly in almost all working conditions. Equipped with various types of drives, chassis and bodies, they perform very well both indoors and outdoors. Due to their maneuverability and mobility, these reliable lifting devices are used in almost every industry. Moreover, their purchase does not always have to be associated with high costs.

 

What else do you need to know about telehandlers?

#1. Telescopic loader – universal device

Telescopic loader – a vehicle equipped with a long boom with a platform on which heavy or bulky loads are placed – it is used in many diffelease industries. This is not only industry, but also construction, logistics, agriculture, activities related to maintaining cleanliness in urban areas and rescue.

Versatility of use telehandlers results from the very high mobility of the boom. Because the operator can move it on two planes - vertical and horizontal, goods or loads can be transported and stored without excessive vehicle maneuvering. This makes it easier to operate the device, increases work safety and allows for efficient movement telehandler even in closed rooms or between building equipment (e.g. shelves or machines in production halls).

 

#2. Excellent parameters of telescopic loaders

Telehandlers These are – compared to many other construction machines – small devices. The compact body structure and stable suspension of this type of devices guarantee really high maneuverability and mobility, as well as stability.

Because of that telescopic loaders they work with equipment for various purposes, they can successfully replace other construction or agricultural machines in places where larger devices cannot reach or their use would be dangerous.

Despite its rather inconspicuous size, telescopic loaders they can surprise you with their possibilities. The lifting capacity of simple models of these machines is several tons, and in many cases this value exceeds even several tons. The situation is similar when it comes to the working height - the lifting height of such a loader is usually several meters, although some manufacturers offer equipment with parameters exceeding these values. One of the most efficient devices are Manitou telehandlers or Genie, which achieve some of the best altitude performance on the market.

All this makes it work in most cases telescopic loaders they perform better than forklifts or mini excavators. If you also add a very wide rotation angle of the operator's cabin, you can get a device with which you can place almost any load exactly where you want it.

 

#3. Telescopic loaders for special tasks

We have already mentioned that telescopic loaders are adapted to work with various types of equipment.

You can mount, among others, the following to the boom or directly to the machine:

  • sweepers;
  • excavator buckets;
  • seed drills;
  • working platforms;
  • barrel grabbers;
  • plows;
  • fork.

Thanks to this telescopic loader can take over the role of another machine, depending on your needs. They are successfully used for work such as sweeping squares and passageways, moving construction or agricultural materials, or storing barrels or other round-shaped loads.

#4. Adapt the telehandler to your needs

Telehandlers with combustion drive are ideal for construction work. They have a very high lifting capacity and move easily over muddy terrain.

 

Since diffelease models differ in terms of design, you can choose equipment that will be perfectly suited to the conditions and type of work.

It is worth paying attention to:

  • Various types of chassis - if you want the device to be highly mobile, choose rigid frame loaders; However, if the most important feature of the machine is mobility, articulated loaders will be better.
  • Body or cabin rotation range - to ensure the greatest possible visibility and working surface, choose rotary loaders in which the cabin can rotate freely around its own axis. Good visibility (and therefore occupational safety) is also provided by machines in which the cabin can tilt back and forth.
  • Diffelease types of tires – thanks to this telescopic loader can work on all types of surfaces, both inside and outside the building. Wheel loaders have very good traction, which allows them to move efficiently over terrain with uneven terrain and a high degree of slope.

In addition, the basic parameters of the device should also be taken into account: lifting capacity, working height and dimensions of the device.

#5. You don't have to buy! Instead, use telehandler leaseals

Construction machinery is very expensive equipment and, unfortunately, it also falls into this category telescopic loaders. Rent these devices is a good solution if you do not want or cannot incur really high financial costs.

Czy telescopic excavator leaseal is it beneficial? Yes, if you carefully consider in advance what work you need the charger for and to what extent.

This step is mainly chosen by companies and individuals who:

  • they need a charger for one-time construction or agricultural work;
  • they do not plan to use the device intensively;
  • want to quickly expand their business without risky investments;
  • they need more devices but cannot finance their purchase own funds or by means of credit;
  • they cannot wait long for the delivery of new devices;
  • They don't know what type of device best suits their type activities and want to test diffelease variants.

You must know that most construction equipment - including telehandlers - are machines with a very long life. They remain functional and efficient for a long time. Telescopic loader leaseal it is therefore profitable in many situations and at the same time low-risk, especially if you use the services of a trusted distributor of used construction equipment and before leaseing you can carefully assess the actual condition of the loader.
