Reach, boom wear, and load stability decide whether a telehandler is safe to buy. We measure the boom and verify the load-chart system.
A telehandler is a forklift, a crane, and a loader in one machine, and its value lives in the boom — the wear pads, the cylinders, and the load-stability system. We inspect the boom under load and confirm the machine lifts to its chart safely, rather than trusting a quick demo in the yard.
Tell us about the construction, high-reach & rotating telehandlers and where it is. We'll confirm scheduling.
Exactly what we look at on these specific machines — the known problem areas and how we check them.
JCB invented the telehandler and the Loadall leads the market. Boom wear pads, cylinder drift, and the load-chart system are the inspection.
GenieA common compact telehandler on rental yards. Boom wear, cylinder drift, and forks lead; frame leveling and stabilizers round it out.
GenieA high-reach telehandler where boom condition and the load-chart system matter even more. Reach amplifies every bit of boom wear.
JLGA workhorse 10k-class telehandler. Boom wear, cylinder drift, forks, and the tilt/level system are the inspection points.
SkyTrakA fixed-frame telehandler relying on frame sway control rather than outriggers. Boom and cylinder condition plus frame leveling are key.
CaterpillarA common 6k-class Cat telehandler. Boom wear pads, cylinders, forks, and the load-chart system define the inspection.
