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 used to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. However, the equipment is top heavy and has to be carefully handled in rough locations. The machinery must be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more difficult at faster speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. However, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not lifting a load whilst operating on an incline will prevent tipping over. The load should be on the equipment's uphill drive if driving up a slope. If driving down a slope, it is good safety practice to back down.
