What does the F gear mean?

[JordanFitz]

The F on a forklift stands for FORWARD, meaning the forward gear. R stands for RETURN, meaning the reverse gear. Automatic transmission vehicles have 7 gears: P, R, N, D, S, L, and M. Below is an introduction to these gears: 1. P gear: This is used for long-term parking. It is generally used in conjunction with the N gear. When the P gear is engaged, components like the transmission are directly locked, which also prevents the vehicle from rolling. 2. R gear: This is the reverse gear. This gear is the same for both manual and automatic transmission vehicles. It is used when reversing, and it is generally engaged after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. 3. N gear: This is the famous neutral gear. It is often misused, with many drivers mistakenly believing that using this gear downhill saves fuel. This is incorrect. It is actually more suitable for short-term parking. Additionally, it is used in conjunction with the P gear for long-term parking. 4. D gear: This is the most commonly used forward gear. Many drivers use this gear indiscriminately regardless of road conditions, whether going uphill or downhill, which is not scientific.
