Telehandler servicing and repairs

Mechanical servicing and repair enquiries for the telescopic handlers used around farms.

Speak directly with Raj, a mechanic with 20+ years of experience across India, Saudi Arabia and New Zealand, including eight years in NZ. His previous work at Almarai included tractors, loaders, forklifts, trucks and hydraulics.

Experience with larger handling equipment

The JCB telehandler in the photograph is one example of the larger machines Raj has handled. A telehandler has a telescopic boom and is different from a conventional forklift. Tell Raj which machine and attachment you operate so the enquiry starts with the correct equipment.

Describe the affected function

Explain whether the concern involves starting, engine operation, travel, steering, brakes or the boom and attachment functions. Include the serial number, hours, service history and any fault messages. Describe what happened during normal use; do not operate unsafe equipment to demonstrate a problem.

Plan the service or repair

Ask about scheduled maintenance, diagnosis and the work suitable for your particular machine. Agree a safe parking and isolation arrangement before a farm visit. Some repairs require specialist equipment, workshop facilities or further inspection. Confirm travel, diagnostic costs and approval of additional parts before work starts.

What to send with your enquiry

You can also send the enquiry form with photographs. Photos support the first conversation; inspection may still be needed before a reliable repair quote.

Local bookings and nearby visits

ARM Cars is based in Morven, serving Waimate District and nearby South Canterbury communities including Glenavy, Studholme, Willowbridge, Makikihi and St Andrews. Call before visiting. For a nearby mobile job, send the exact location so Raj can confirm access, travel charges and whether the work is suitable on site.

How much will it cost?

Pricing depends on the vehicle or machine, diagnosis, parts and agreed labour. Ask for the inspection charge, an estimate or quote for the proposed work, and the process for approving anything additional. An online enquiry is not a confirmed appointment.
