Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of environments where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is best. This type of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the equipment is top heavy and should be carefully handled in rough locations. The machinery must be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
At higher speeds, steering is harder. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed limitations on forklifts. Then again, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, specially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
In order to prevent a tip over, never lift a load whilst operating on an incline. The load needs to be on the machine's uphill drive if driving up an incline. If driving down a slope, it is good safety practice to back down.
