Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and different locations where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are meant for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the machinery is top heavy and must be carefully handled in rough areas. The machine needs to 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 limits on forklifts. Nevertheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, particularly if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not raising a load whilst operating on an incline will prevent a tip over. The load should be on the machine's uphill drive when driving up a slope. When driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
