You always keep the forks (and the load) as low to the ground as possible. This holds true for forklifts, front end loaders, etc.
When traveling on a forklift the carried load must be at the highest feasible position travel
Forks slightly tilted back, one foot above ground, be able to see ahead over the load
Yes, always reverse down a slope or ramp, keeping the forks and load pointing up hill. Going down a ramp with the load in front could allow the load to slide downwards off the forks.
Platform right down about 6 inches off ground to enable sight over the load.
