About this course
Our Telehandler Maintenance Training Online delivers the foundational knowledge required to perform effective preventive maintenance on telehandler equipment, reduce costly mechanical failures, and ensure full workplace safety compliance. Built for operators, technicians, and safety managers, this telehandler inspection and maintenance course covers every critical procedure needed to keep your telehandler fleet operating safely, productively, and in line with industry regulations across construction, agriculture, and industrial job sites.
What You Will Learn:
- Telehandler Preventive Maintenance Best Practices
- Identifying & Controlling Telehandler Safety Hazards
- Pre-Use and Routine Inspection Procedures
- Extending Equipment Lifespan & Reducing Repair Costs
A telehandler (telescopic handler) combines the reach of a small crane with the versatility of a forklift, making it one of the hardest-working machines on construction sites, farms, and industrial yards. That versatility also means more systems to maintain: an extending boom, high-pressure hydraulics, interchangeable attachments, and a diesel powertrain that all demand regular attention.
This course is for telehandler operators, equipment technicians, fleet managers, and site supervisors responsible for keeping these machines safe and available. It focuses on the inspections and preventive-maintenance tasks that keep a telehandler within its rated capacity and out of the repair shop.
Under Canadian occupational health and safety rules, powered mobile equipment must be inspected before use and kept in safe working order. This training gives your team the knowledge to meet that expectation and document their due diligence.

Great refresher on the hydraulics
I've operated for years but the boom wear-pad and hydraulic sections taught me a couple of things I'd been skipping. Well worth the time.

Solid maintenance overview
Good practical content and the printable checklists are handy on the yard. Would've liked a few more model-specific examples, but still very useful.

Frequently asked questions
Who should take this telehandler course?
Operators, maintenance technicians, fleet managers, and supervisors on construction, agricultural, or industrial sites who inspect or service telescopic handlers.
Does this replace hands-on operator certification?
No. This is maintenance and inspection training. It complements — but does not replace — the practical, employer-administered competency evaluation required under provincial OHS regulations and standards such as CSA B335 for lift trucks.
How long does the course take?
It is fully online and self-paced, so most learners finish in a single sitting and can revisit any lesson whenever they need a refresher before a service.
Will I receive a certificate?
Yes. You will get a dated certificate of completion that you can keep in operator training files for OHS recordkeeping.
