Load Hook Attachment for Telehandlers
Rent a Lattice Jib with Winch for Telehandlers
A rotating telehandler becomes a fully functional crane alternative when equipped with a lattice jib and winch attachment. The lattice jib extends the telehandler's reach over obstacles, while the integrated cable winch handles controlled lifting and precise load positioning. This allows heavy components to be lifted, moved, and set down at the installation site without the need for a separate mobile crane. Luibl rents out this lattice jib and winch attachment for rotating telehandlers, offering delivery across Europe.
What is a lattice jib with winch?
This attachment combines two functions: a lattice jib for extending horizontal reach and a hydraulic cable winch for vertical lifting. Unlike a standard lattice jib with a simple load hook, the integrated winch allows for the controlled lowering and retracting of the cable—enabling access to areas that the telehandler boom alone could not reach, such as deep shafts or spaces behind building projections.
The lattice jib enables horizontal outreach, allowing loads to be placed over flat roofs, balconies, or gables—a capability provided by neither a standard load hook nor a simple winch mounted directly to the boom head. Technical Specifications
Load capacity: 800 to 2,000 kg, depending on configuration and carrier machine
Cable length: 3 m effective length
Compatibility: exclusively for rotating telehandlers with a 360° rotating superstructure
Mounting: via hydraulic quick-change system directly from the operator's cab
Areas of Application
The lattice boom with cable winch replaces a costly mobile crane in many project scenarios:
Building and industrial construction: Positioning steel beams, precast concrete elements, and roof trusses over building edges
Installation work: Precise placement of building services, ventilation systems, or mechanical components in shafts and basements
Bridge and civil engineering: Lowering heavy loads into shafts or below bridge level
Infrastructure projects: Positioning pipes, pumps, and generator sets in hard-to-reach installation locations
Roofing work: Lifting materials over roof edges and gables without moving the machine
Lattice boom winch vs. mobile crane – when is the telehandler the better choice?
For medium-duty lifting tasks up to 2 tonnes that do not justify a permanently stationed crane, the rotating telehandler with a lattice boom winch offers clear advantages: the machine is mobile, all-terrain capable, and can be operated by existing site personnel. No additional crane operator is required. It can be used from a fixed position or while driving. While a mobile crane requires lead time, permits, and external personnel, the rotating telehandler with a lattice boom winch can take on the job immediately and flexibly.

FAQ: Renting a telehandler lattice boom winch
Which telehandlers is the lattice boom winch suitable for? This attachment is designed exclusively for rotating telehandlers (Roto telehandlers) featuring a 360° rotating superstructure. It is not compatible with rigid-frame telehandlers.
What is the difference between a lattice jib and a lattice jib with winch? A lattice jib extends the horizontal reach of the telehandler boom. A lattice jib with winch includes an additional hydraulic cable winch for the controlled lifting and lowering of loads, making it more versatile and capable than a standard jib with a hook.
What is the load capacity of the lattice jib with winch? Depending on the carrier machine and configuration, it ranges from 800 to 2,000 kg. Please refer to the specific Roto telehandler’s load chart for exact capacity figures based on lifting height and boom position.
Is a separate crane operator required to use the lattice jib with winch? No. The telehandler is operated by the regular driver. However, additional certification for winch-based crane operations is required. Luibl can provide information on certified training partners upon request.
Can I rent both the telehandler and the lattice jib with winch from Luibl? Yes. Luibl rents out Roto telehandlers and compatible attachments as a complete package, offering Europe-wide delivery via its own fleet of low-loader trucks.
