A telescopic handler (also known as a telehandler) is similar in some ways to both a forklift and a crane. It is a versatile equipment designed together with a telescopic boom that can lift upwards and extend forward. Various attachments can be fitted on the end of the boom, such as pallet forks, bucket, lift table or muck grab. It is popular in industry and agriculture settings.

The telehandler is a common utilized together with fork attachments in order to enable the shuttling of loads. Telehandlers have the advantage of being able to reach those inaccessible places that can't be reached by a standard forklift. Telehandlers are capable of removing loads which are palletized from within a trailer and placing them on high places like for example rooftops. For some applications, they can be more practical and efficient compared to a crane.

When lifting loads that are heavy, the telehandler can experience some unsteadiness. When the boom is extended very far with a load, the machinery will become more unstable. Counterweights found at the back help, but do not solve the problem. The lifting capacity quickly decreases as the working radius increases. Some machinery come together with front outriggers that extend the lifting capacity when the equipment is stationary.
