There’s a 2 wheel drive forklift designed for rough terrain and firmer and grassy surfaces such as building sites and orchards. If you need to get serious about slippery slopes and deep mud check out the 4 wheel drive forklift. Both have low gearing, diff locks. High clearance, extra steer axle movement and off road tyres complete the picture. These forklifts aren’t modified yard machines, they are purpose-built off roaders and they deliver what they promise.
