A mobile lifting device, which preferably has a mobile frame with a plurality of castors. The lifting device has a closed fluid circuit, in particular a hydraulic circuit. It has a cylinder with an elevating work chamber. The elevating work chamber is fluidically connected to a fluid reservoir via a first fluid conduit and a second fluid conduit. In the first fluid conduit, a main pump is arranged which can be driven by means of a rotatably drivable hand tool to supply fluid from the fluid reservoir into the elevating work chamber, thereby extending a piston rod of the fluid cylinder, for example, to lift a load. In the second fluid conduit, a flow control arrangement is arranged which can be switched between a blocking state and a release state by means of a lowering operating element. When the piston rod is extended, the flow control arrangement is in the blocking state. To retract the piston rod, it is switched to the release state, allowing fluid to flow out of the elevating work chamber through the second fluid conduit.

A side saddle slingshot drilling rig includes a left and right substructure including a left and right lower box. The side saddle slingshot drilling rig includes a drill rig floor mechanically and pivotably coupled to the left and right lower boxes such that it is pivotably movable from a lowered position to a raised position. The drill rig floor includes a V-door. The V-door is positioned on the V-door side of the drill rig floor. The V-door side of the drill rig floor is oriented to face the right substructure. A mast coupled to the drill rig floor may include an open side, defining a mast V-door side. The mast V-door side may be oriented to face the right substructure. The mast may pivot into its raised position or may be a bootstrap mast.

A vehicle maintenance method using a mobile vehicle maintenance station, includes: determining a location of a vehicle to be maintained; and a technician taking the maintenance station to the location of the vehicle to be maintained and using the maintenance station to perform corresponding maintenance operations on the vehicle to be maintained. The maintenance operations include: taking a lifting mechanism out of a compartment of the maintenance station, and supporting the lifting mechanism on the ground; moving the vehicle to be maintained to the lifting mechanism and fixing the same thereto; and raising the vehicle to be maintained to a predetermined height by using the lifting mechanism so that an overhead space is formed between a chassis of the vehicle to be maintained and the ground, and the technician entering the overhead space to perform maintenance operations on the chassis of the vehicle to be maintained.
