A full container handler which is unequaled in efficiency and lifting capacity is known as a Caterpillar Container Handler.
Stability, modern technology and high performance combine in order to make Caterpillar Container handlers the optimum alternative for unloading and loading full containers. Container Handlers range from 24 tons to 43 tons. Options consist of 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 other locations where there is no paved surface. This kind of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These kinds of forklifts are really designed for rough terrain. However, the equipment is top heavy and should be carefully handled in rough locations. The equipment has to be level with all tires on the ground when lifting.
Steering is more difficult at higher speeds. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not set speed restrictions on forklifts. However, drivers are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed which is safe, especially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
In order to avoid a tip over, do not lift a load whilst operating on an incline. The load should be on the equipment's uphill drive when driving up a slope. If driving down a slope, it is good safety practice to back down.
