Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of environments where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is recommended. This kind of forklift is utilized to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are meant for rough terrain. Nonetheless, the machinery is top heavy and should be handled carefully in rough places. The machine needs to be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more difficult at faster speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed limits on forklifts. However, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, particularly if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not lifting a load while operating on an incline would prevent tipping over. The load needs to be on the uphill side of the machine if driving up an incline. If driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
