Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of locations where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is best. This type of forklift is used to transport materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are truly meant for rough terrain. Nonetheless, the machinery is top heavy and must be handled carefully in rough areas. 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. Nonetheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
To prevent a tip over, never raise a load while operating on an incline. The load has to be on the uphill side of the machine if driving up an incline. When driving down an incline, backing down is a good safety practice.
