Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of environments where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is best. This type of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These kinds of forklifts are truly designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the machine is top heavy and must be carefully handled in rough locations. The machinery must be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
At faster speeds, steering is harder. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. However, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not lifting a load while operating on an incline will avoid tipping over. The load must be on the uphill side of the machine when driving up a slope. When driving down an incline, backing down is a good safety practice.
