A full container handler which is unequaled in lifting capacity and efficiency is referred to as a Caterpillar Container Handler.
By combining stability, modern technology and high performance, Caterpillar Container handlers are the optimum option for loading and unloading full containers. Container Handlers range from 24 tons to 43 tons. Options comprise low-mounted cabin at the front or high-mounted in the middle for the excellent handling and visibility.
Rough Terrain Forklift
At construction sites and other types of locations where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is recommended. This particular kind of forklift is utilized to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These types of forklifts are truly designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the equipment is top heavy and needs to be handled carefully in rough locations. The machine should 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. However, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a safe speed, especially when turning and driving on rough terrain.
To avoid a tip over, never lift a load whilst operating on an incline. The load should be on the uphill side of the machinery if driving up an incline. When driving down a slope, backing down is a good safety practice.
