A full container handler which is unparalleled in efficiency and lifting capacity is called a Caterpillar Container Handler.
Stability, modern technology and high performance combine to make Caterpillar Container handlers the best choice for unloading and loading full containers. Container Handlers range 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
At construction sites and other kinds of locations where the surface is not paved, the rough terrain forklift is recommended. This particular kind of forklift is used to shuttle materials around lumberyards.
These kinds of forklifts are truly designed for rough terrain. Nevertheless, the machinery is top heavy and must be handled carefully in rough places. The machinery must 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. However, operators are responsible for operating forklifts at a speed that is safe, specially if driving on rough terrain and when turning.
Not lifting a load while operating on an incline would prevent a tip over. The load has to be on the uphill side of the machine when driving up a slope. If driving down an incline, it is good safety practice to back down.
