Articulated boom telehandler

A telehandler includes a frame assembly, a series of tractive elements rotatably coupled to the frame assembly, a boom assembly, and an actuator selectively reconfigurable between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration. The boom assembly includes a lower boom section having a proximal end pivotably coupled to the frame assembly, an intermediate boom section pivotably coupled to a distal end of the lower boom section, and an upper boom section having a proximal end pivotably coupled to the intermediate boom section and a distal end configured to be coupled to an implement. The boom assembly is configured to move freely when the actuator is in the unlocked configuration. In the locked configuration, the actuator is positioned to couple the intermediate boom section to the frame assembly such that the actuator limits rotation of the lower boom section relative to the frame assembly.
