Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is best for applications at construction sites and various locations where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the machinery is top heavy and must be carefully handled in rough areas. The equipment needs to be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more difficult at higher speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. Nevertheless, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, particularly if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
In order to avoid tipping over, never lift a load whilst operating on an incline. The load must be on the uphill side of the machinery when driving up an incline. When driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
