Used telescopic loaders

Key Tasks and Advantages

The telehandler can handle multiple tasks at once: lifting pallets, loading grain, moving construction blocks, stacking, and cleaning areas. Its versatility is enabled by interchangeable attachments — buckets, forks, hooks, and platforms.

Advantages include high lifting height (up to 18 m), strong load capacity, precise operation in tight spaces, and ease of control. This makes the machine in demand both on large sites and in agricultural settings.

Where Telehandlers Are Used

This equipment is widely used on construction sites for delivering materials to upper floors, in agriculture for loading feed, straw, fertilizers, and in logistics for truck loading/unloading and warehouse operations. A used telehandler often becomes the main piece of equipment on farms, grain storage sites, and construction projects where lifting height and off-road capability are essential.

Why Choose Used Equipment

Buying new equipment is a major investment. For many companies, the optimal solution is to purchase used machinery, especially when there is a need to quickly expand the fleet or reduce project costs. Used telehandlers offer the same functionality as new machines but at a lower investment.

Benefits of Buying Used

The main reason to choose used equipment is cost savings. The price difference can reach 30–40%, while the technical performance remains high. Many models maintain a service life of up to 10,000 engine hours or more, especially if previously used in light-duty conditions.

Buying a used telehandler is a cost-effective choice for companies aiming for quick ROI and minimal startup costs.

Differences from New Equipment

The difference is not just in price. Used equipment is often already adapted to field or construction conditions, comes with installed options, and can be further equipped for specific tasks. Moreover, the market offers rare models that are no longer in production but have proven reliable in practice. A used telehandler saves time on break-in and configuration of a new machine.

How to Choose a Used Telehandler

Selecting a telehandler requires considering the specific work tasks. There is no one-size-fits-all model — the machine should be selected based on technical parameters, working conditions, and budget. Proper selection directly impacts the machine’s productivity and lifespan.

Key Factors: Boom Reach, Load Capacity, Drive Type

Boom reach defines the height and distance at which loads can be lifted — this is especially important in construction. Load capacity depends on boom length and chassis configuration — the higher the lift, the lower the permissible load.

When buying a used telehandler, consider the drive type: all-wheel-drive models are more versatile, suitable for off-road conditions and loose surfaces. Tire size, transmission type, and the presence of stabilization systems are also important factors.

Inspection and Documentation

When purchasing, it’s essential to perform a full diagnostic of key components: engine, transmission, hydraulics, brakes, boom, and chassis. Also check operating hours, cab and frame integrity. A reliable seller provides a technical condition report and full service history. Buying a used telehandler is safe only with original documents confirming the machine’s origin.
