Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended 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 kinds of forklifts are truly 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 limitations on forklifts. Nevertheless, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, particularly if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
In order to prevent a tip over, do not lift a load while operating on an incline. The load should be on the equipment's uphill drive if driving up an incline. If driving down a slope, backing down is a good safety practice.
