Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and various environments where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is utilized to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. Nonetheless, the equipment is top heavy and should be carefully handled in rough places. The equipment needs to be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more challenging at faster speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. However, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
To avoid tipping over, never lift a load while operating on an incline. The load must be on the uphill side of the machinery when driving up an incline. When driving down a slope, it is good safety practice to back down.
