Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and different environments where there is no paved surface. This kind of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are truly designed for rough terrain. However, the equipment is top heavy and must be carefully handled in rough locations. The machine should be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more challenging at faster speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. Nonetheless, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, especially if turning and driving on rough terrain.
In order to avoid a tip over, never raise a load while operating on an incline. The load must be on the equipment's uphill drive if driving up a slope. If driving down an incline, backing down is a good safety practice.
