5Lego Telescopic Handler  Sep 17, 2008
By Eric Hulliberger "Legofan"
Excellent Lego offerings for 2008, and the 8295 Telescopic Handler does not disappoint. Just like the real machine, the boom raises uses the new unique Linear Actuators that seemed to have replaced the older pneumatic cylinders and air pumps. This is actually a good thing, without an air tank, it would take constant pumping to create enough air pressure to allow the cylinders to function, the actuators are 'screw' operated, you just turn a gear wheel on the back of the machine to actuate the cylinder to raise the boom, then using a slick clutch type setup on the side of the Telehandler you flip a switch to change the gearing to extending the boom. It would have been nice if the tilting of the forks on the end of the boom would have been operated on the machine, making it look more authentic, rather than the cheesy setup of having to turn a lever on the fork assembly itself, maybe 1 extra Linear Actuator on the end of the boom would have accomplished the task, but then the price tag might have hit $100 as well...either way it is a lot of fun, and actually fairly complex to assemble the Telehandler, even more so than the Flagship 2008 model, #8297 Off-Roader. It is advisable that you motorize the Telehandler with either #8293 Power Functions kit, or if you have an extra battery box, clutch gear and the small Power Functions motor, you can simply motorize the boom, which is actually quite cool to watch. You can motorize the #8294 Excavator as well with the same 3 parts, and it adds a lot of replay value to the sets.

5Love my Telehandler  Mar 24, 2010
By Atulya Bhimarasetty
25yr old AFOL. My second Lego technic toy. Looks great and not difficult to build. I was building this toy when I suddenly reliazed that I was missing a small part. I went through all the parts (that came with the toy) and could not find it. Disappointed I was with Lego for not packing an expensive toy with all the parts. I wrote to their customer service and they shipped me the part for free of the cost. Only later did I find the missing part in my room. Kudos for a company that makes amazing toys and backs it up with great customer service.
