Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and other environments where there is no paved surface. This particular type of forklift is used to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. However, the machinery 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, particularly if turning and driving on rough terrain.
In order to prevent tipping over, never raise a load while operating on an incline. The load must be on the uphill side of the equipment if driving up a slope. When driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
