A full container handler which is unequaled in lifting capacity and efficiency is called a Caterpillar Container Handler.
By combining high performance, stability and modern technology, Caterpillar Container handlers are the best alternative for unloading and loading full containers. Container Handlers vary from 24 tons to 43 tons. Options consist of high-mounted cabin in the middle or low-mounted cabin at the front for the superb handling and visibility.
Rough Terrain Forklift
The rough terrain forklift is best for applications at construction sites and other locations where there is no paved surface. This particular type of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are really designed for rough terrain. Then again, the machine is top heavy and needs to be carefully handled in rough locations. The machinery has 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 limitations on forklifts. Nonetheless, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, particularly when driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not raising a load while operating on an incline will avoid tipping over. The load needs to 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.
