Telehandlers: a part of agriculture

Tractors are undoubtedly the most important machines in agriculture. The tractor has come a long way since its humble beginnings in the 19th century. Nowadays, ploughing, cultivating the soil, and planting fields are done effortlessly with a tractor. However, certain other tasks on the farm are not as straightforward when using a tractor. That’s where the telehandler comes into play.

Need to stack straw or hay bales? No problem. An advantage of telehandlers is the increased reach over tractors. The boom typically has a reach of 7 to 10 m compared to the tractor’s maximum reach of 4,5 m. Grabbing and depositing material can be done further and higher. That’s one point to the telehandler!

The telehandler offers great flexibility. The weight of the load can be distributed by extending or retracting the boom. Because of this, a telehandler has a larger load capacity compared to a tractor. Telehandlers can handle loads up to 6000 kg, while a tractor maxes out at 2500 kg.

Telehandlers are more manageable to drive in tight spaces. There is a wide range of compact telehandlers that make manoeuvring a breeze, assisted by the possibility of 4-wheel steering. In addition, telehandlers get up to speed quickly, meaning they can cover ground in no time.

And that’s not even all. The action doesn’t only happen in the front. Attachments can also be mounted on the back, making it possible for telehandlers to fulfil tasks of tractors like ploughing the field. These diverse applications prove that the telehandler is a jack of all trades.

With our range, we can easily supply attachments for all popular makes of telehandlers.

Working with machines has its risks. That is why brakes should never be compromised on. You can rest assured that the telehandler will stop in time with parts such as brake shoes and pads, hydraulic brakes, and more from our range.

The cabin houses many parts. Some of them increase comfort and safety, while others are essential for operating the machine.

When a joystick is operated, how does the boom on a telehandler know what to do? A printed circuit board is the link between them. Printed circuit boards use copper circuits to transmit information from one electrical component to another.
