Forklift or Skidsteer? Get the Best of Both Worlds with JCB Teletruks

Forklift or Skidsteer? Get the Best of Both Worlds with JCB Teletruks

Skid steers, wheel loaders, telehandlers and forklift machinery are key pieces of equipment across industries in Western Canada but what if there was another option that could do it all? JCB has been known to push the limits of innovation, which is no different with their Teletruk series of machines. The Teletruk series provides a hybrid solution for situations that require skid steer or forklift/telehandler machinery.

“In 1997, JCB developed a forklift truck with a telescopic boom, instead of the conventional vertical mast, to create the JCB Teletruk. This unique design dramatically improves productivity and safety, and saves operational time and yard space” - JCB Canada

The telescoping arm allows greater maneuverability of payloads with the longest extending model (77-52D) can lift loads up to a maximum height of just over 14 foot! Additionally, forks can tilt to an exceptional 111 degrees angle. That’s a lift ability comparable to some of the strongest forklifts on market, but not only that, these machines are capable of lifting up to 7,700 lbs payload.

For stronger capability, most models have the option of 4-wheel drive to better maneuver and gain traction on soft or uneven yards & jobsites as well as a tight turning circle to navigate around easily around enclosed spaces.

Attachments are key for Teletruk machines due to the versatility of use cases. With the Changezee attachment coupler you can switch between options in less than 30 seconds, you can move materials with forks and switch to buckets, clamps and more with ease on site.

In addition to the versatility of various attachments available, the teletruk series provides owners with the option of diesel, electric or propane gas powertrains to fit the worksite environment unique to your needs. As a result of this versatility typical savings can be up to 30% on operating costs compared to a similar masted forklift truck.

Indoors or outdoors, JCB has an option fit for purpose.
