Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of locations where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is best. This kind of forklift is used to transport materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really meant for rough terrain. However, the machine is top heavy and needs to be carefully handled in rough locations. The machine must be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more challenging at higher speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed limitations on forklifts. Nevertheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, specially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
To avoid a tip over, do not lift a load while operating on an incline. The load must be on the equipment's uphill drive when driving up an incline. When driving down a slope, backing down is a good safety practice.
