The Haugen Tele-Tach is a must-have adapter for telehandler operators seeking true attachment versatility. This smart conversion plate transforms your telehandler carriage into a skid-steer style coupler — enabling you to mount a broad range of skid-steer attachments such as buckets, brooms, augers, grapples, and more. Instead of limiting your machine to telehandler-specific tools, you gain full compatibility with one of the largest attachment ecosystems available.

Why Choose The Tele-Tach?

Telehandlers are powerful machines, but many operators find themselves under-utilizing attachments due to mount type limitations. With the Tele-Tach adapter, you unlock the ability to use skid-steer style tools — dramatically expanding what you can do with your telehandler. Whether you’re converting material buckets, installing an auger, or swapping to a brush cutter, the Tele-Tach makes it possible with less downtime and quicker transitions.

Key Construction & Durability

Built in the USA by Haugen, the Tele-Tach features a zinc-coated leveler and springs for outstanding resistance to rust and wear. The adapter is engineered for heavy use, with a strong steel construction that maintains attachment stability and safety. Each model is customized to fit specific telehandler mounts (SkyTrak, JLG, Genie, Bobcat, CAT, etc.) and weigh between 245 to 315 lbs depending on configuration.

Easy Conversion Process

The conversion process is straightforward: remove the telehandler’s standard coupler plate, install the Tele-Tach adapter, attach your skid-steer style tool and you’re ready. Because the adapter is designed for material work — not personnel lifting — Haugen emphasizes that it is not for work platforms or truss jibs (this is explicitly warned on the product page) to maintain full compliance with safety standards.

Applications & Versatility

With the Tele-Tach installed, your telehandler becomes a multi-purpose machine. Common applications include:

• Loading and moving material with buckets

• Installing augers for post-hole drilling

• Mounting brooms for site cleanup

• Swapping to grapples for brush or debris handling

• Using sweepers, snow blowers, and other ground-based attachments

For rental fleets, construction sites, municipalities, and contractors with multiple attachment needs, the Tele-Tach offers an efficient solution to reduce the number of dedicated machines and increase ROI.
