Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other kinds of locations where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is best. This particular kind of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really designed for rough terrain. However, the machinery is top heavy and has to be handled carefully in rough areas. The machine should 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 restrictions on forklifts. However, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed which is safe, specially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
To avoid a tip over, never lift a load while operating on an incline. The load must be on the uphill side of the equipment when driving up an incline. When driving down an incline, backing down is a good safety practice.
