A full container handler which is unequaled in lifting capacity and efficiency is called a Caterpillar Container Handler.
High performance, stability and modern technology combine to make Caterpillar Container handlers the optimum option for unloading and loading full containers. Container Handlers vary from 24 tons to 43 tons. Options include low-mounted cabin at the front or high-mounted in the middle for the excellent handling and visibility.
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 used to transport materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. Then again, the machinery is top heavy and needs to be handled carefully in rough areas. The machine needs to 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 restrictions on forklifts. Nevertheless, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not raising a load while operating on an incline would avoid a tip over. The load must be on the uphill side of the machine when driving up a slope. If driving down a slope, it is good safety practice to back down.
