Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and different environments where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are meant for rough terrain. However, the machinery is top heavy and has to be carefully handled in rough areas. The machine 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 limits on forklifts. However, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed which is safe, specially when turning and driving on rough terrain.
To avoid a tip over, do not raise a load whilst operating on an incline. The load has to be on the uphill side of the machinery if driving up a slope. If driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
