Telehandler's are unique in that their advantage is also their largest limitation: as the boom raises or extends when the machinery is bearing a load, it also acts as a lever and causes the vehicle to become quite unbalanced, even with the counterweights on the back. This translates to the lifting capacity decreasing fast as the working radius increases. The working radius is the distance between the front of the wheels and the center of the load.
Once it is completely extended with a low boom angle for instance, the telehandler will just have a four hundred pound weight capacity, whereas a retracted boom can support weights as much as 5000 lb. The same unit with a 5000 pound lift capacity which has the boom retracted might be able to easily support as heavy as ten thousand pounds with the boom raised up to 70.
The Matbro Company within Horley, Surrey, England originally pioneered telehandlers. These machines were developed from their articulated cross country forestry forklifts. At first, they had a centrally mounted boom design on the front portion. This placed the cab of the driver on the machinery's back portion, as in the Teleram 40 model. The rigid chassis design with the cab located on the side and a rear mounted boom has since become more popular.
At the center of the 5 steps and this regulation, there is a machinery that stands on a triangular footprint and lifts heavy weights to impressive heights. The key goal is to maintain the telehandler upright, but of course there are risks.
The telehandler's triangular base comprises the rear-axle pivot point and the two front wheels. The rear axles normally oscillates, therefore the back wheels are not considered part of the base. The telehandler remains upright so long as the center of gravity of the equipment, which is defined as the point in 3 dimensions around which the weight of the machine is balanced, stays oriented in the stability triangle.
Some of the main components needing attention during maintenance include the horn, safety warning devices, gauges, the overhead guard and the lights. Any faulty components or burnt out light bulbs have to be replaced as soon as they are noticed. It is also imperative to inspect the wiring.
The battery compartment terminals must be cleaned when the above components have been checked carefully. If the terminals are not clean, be sure to clean them well. Every battery cell should be checked so as to ensure the fill level is topped up to the regulated amount.
