Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is best for applications at construction sites and other environments where there is no paved surface. This particular type of forklift is utilized to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really meant for rough terrain. Then again, the equipment is top heavy and must be handled carefully in rough places. The machinery should 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. Nevertheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed which is safe, particularly when turning and driving on rough terrain.
In order to prevent tipping over, do not raise a load whilst operating on an incline. The load should be on the uphill side of the machinery when driving up an incline. If driving down a slope, backing down is a good safety practice.
