Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is best for applications at construction sites and other environments where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. Then again, the equipment is top heavy and must be handled carefully in rough areas. The machinery must be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more challenging at higher speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed limits on forklifts. Nevertheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, specially if turning and driving on rough terrain.
To avoid a tip over, do not lift a load whilst operating on an incline. The load needs to be on the equipment's uphill drive if driving up an incline. If driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
