JLG Industries Inc. offers a remote boom control for its 1644, 1732 and 1075 telehandlers. With it, operators can control booms from outside the cabs, providing visibility during load placements. Wireless functions include engine startup, boom raise/lower, boom extend/retract, fork tilt up/down, and auxiliary hydraulics. When operating the remote boom control from the fork-mounted work platform, a platform docking station is required for a stable surface to magnetically mount the remote-control box.
