CAT Zoom Boom Austin

Telescopic forklifts are designed to have a pronged lift which uses an arm or a crane to come over the top of a truck. These lift trucks allow you to raise the cargo much higher and have great control of where it should go at those heights. This additional control is because of the fact that you are moving the cargo on the crane's end, which is referred to as a telescopic boom.



The load is also able to move both towards and away from the forklift cab too and this unique feature is something which regular lift trucks could not do. The telescopic forklifts are able to offer both versatility and height. The telescopic forklift is super common in the construction and agricultural industries. Furthermore, they are an excellent choice in circumstances where you should work with something that needs more control that a regular forklift.



Frame Tilt

A particular feature common to telehandlers is the frame tilt. Operators could activate the lateral controls to move the angle of the frame from side to side. This particular frame could be moved 10 to 15 degrees in either direction from horizontal. There is a liquid filled tube which is curved and mounted in the cab. This is the frame tilt indicator or level indicator and works similar to a carpenter's level. It has a bubble indicator that indicates the frame's lateral angle relative to the ground. This is a really helpful apparatus that is utilized to make sure that the frame is level prior to elevating the boom in rough setting.



Steering

There are some units of telehandlers that offer rear wheel steering, like a vertical mast type unit. The majority of unit's provide 3 steering options that the operator may choose; circle, front and crab steering. For instance, if the operator chooses the "front" steering option, just the equipment's front wheels will react to the movement of the steering wheel.
