R 408.12110 Definitions; R to U.

Rule 2110. (1) "Reach truck" means a self-loading truck, generally high-lift, having load engaging means mounted so the means can be extended forwardly under control to permit a load to be picked up and deposited in the extended position and transported in the retracted position. (Appendix A, Figure 7.) (2) "Rough terrain forklift truck" means a wheeled-type truck which is designed primarily as a fork truck that has a vertical mast or pivoted boom, or both, which has variable fixed length reach and which may be equipped with attachments and that is intended for operation on unimproved natural terrain as well as the disturbed terrain of construction sites. A machine that is designed primarily for earth-moving, such as a loader or dozer, even though its buckets and blades are replaced with forks or a machine that is designed primarily as an over-the-road truck that has a lifting device, is not a rough terrain forklift truck. (3) "Self-loading" means the capability of a truck to pick up, carry, set down and, in the case of high-lift types to stack or tier its load without the aid of external means. (4) "Service brake" means a device designed to bring a moving truck to a halt. (5) "Side loader" means a self-loading truck, generally high-lift, having load engaging means mounted in such a manner that the means can be extended laterally under control to permit a load to be picked up and deposited in the extended position and transported in the retracted position. (Appendix A, Figure 8.) (6) "Straddle truck" means a general class of cantilever truck with horizontal structural wheel supported members extending forward from the main body of the truck, generally high-lift, for picking up and hauling loads between its outrigger arms. (Appendix A, Figure 10.) (7) "Tire" means a tire which may be standard solid, cushion solid, pneumatic or solid pneumatic style. (8) "Tiering" means a process of placing a load on or above another load. (9) "Unattended truck" means a truck which is beyond the vision or more than 25 feet from the operator, whichever is less.
