Introduction
The Telehandler Ticket – in our Toowoomba training facility – is another of your broadly relevant plant and equipment tickets to get trained for! Telehandler training is suitable for you if you need to use non-slewing telescopic materials handler operations under 3 tonnes using Forks, work platform basket (<11mtr), earth moving buckets or a Job & hook attachment for a variety of jobs including lifting, carrying, scooping and stacking.
Telehandlers are known by a range of names including Variable Reach Truck, Mobile Crane, Mobile Lifting Plant, Telescopic Forklift, Multi-Purpose Tool Carrier, Multi-Purpose Handler and Multi-Purpose Crane. Whatever you know it as, if you need to scoop or stack, lift or carry then this might just be the nationally accredited course you need – and right here in Toowoomba!

Telescopic materials handlers (telehandlers) are very versatile machines that can be used for lifting and carrying materials. While a variety of attachments are available which can be fitted using a coupling system for the varied sizes and models of Telehanders, the characteristics, capabilities and limitations are generally consistent – and this course is based around these common elements to ensure you have the grounding you need to apply that on-site.
