Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other kinds of environments where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is recommended. This type of forklift is utilized to transport materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really meant for rough terrain. Nonetheless, the equipment is top heavy and needs to be handled carefully in rough areas. The machine should be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
At faster 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 driving on rough terrain and when turning.
