A full container handler that is unequaled in lifting capacity and efficiency is referred to as a Caterpillar Container Handler.
By combining modern technology, high performance and stability, Caterpillar Container handlers are the best alternative for unloading and loading full containers. Container Handlers vary 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
The rough terrain forklift is recommended for applications at construction sites and different locations where there is no paved surface. This type of forklift is utilized to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These forklifts are designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the machinery is top heavy and needs to be handled carefully in rough locations. The equipment should be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more challenging at higher speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed limits on forklifts. Nonetheless, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, specially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not lifting a load whilst operating on an incline will avoid a tip over. The load should be on the uphill side of the equipment if driving up a slope. When driving down a slope, backing down is a good safety practice.
