This invention relates to a truck mounted forklift comprising a U-shaped chassis having a pair of side bars bridged by a rear crossbar. There is provided a driver's station, a motive power unit and a lifting mechanism on the chassis. There is further provided a skid steer drive mechanism comprising two driven front wheels and a dolly rear wheel. The dolly rear wheel is rotatably mounted about a vertical axis offset from a central axis of the dolly rear wheel, and there is a releasable locking mechanism to secure the dolly rear wheel in a fixed orientation about the vertical axis. The releasable locking mechanism comprises a hydraulically operated locking pin on the chassis and a locking pin receiver on the dolly rear wheel. The locking pin is operated by way of a locking pin actuator on a driver's console, and there is a locking pin indicator on the console to warn the operator of the locking pin configuration.

A hydraulic control circuit operable to selectively hydraulically link first and second hydraulic actuators and to bypass that hydraulic link.

A cargo container lift truck includes a body having a bottom, the body including drive wheels and at least one turning whee l at the bottom, a lift nose capable of going up and down along the body, the lift nose including a lift body that goes up and down along the body, and fork levers disposed at two sides of the front of the lift body, the bottom of the fork levers having support rods to hold up a cargo container. A movement drive device drives the drive wheels, and a lift drive device drives the lift nose up and down. The body further includes a pivotable handle, the handle including buttons that control movement of the body forward and backward, and control raising and lowering of the lift nose.

An insulated metal panel (IMP) assembly system includes a panel assembly table and a boom IMP attachment. The panel assembly table allows for assembly of a panel module at ground level. The boom IMP attachment features a quick-coupler couplable to the boom of a telehandler, a swivel coupler column, one or more tilt linear actuators configured to tilt the orientation of a panel module, and one or more hydraulic rotation linear actuators configured to rotate the orientation of the panel module. The boom IMP attachment also includes a jib frame, a plurality of jib arms spanning outwards from the jib frame, and one or more clamp header rails having a plurality of clamp assemblies, each configured to grip a frame member of the panel frame of the panel module. The boom IMP attachment may hoist, tilt, and rotate the panel module.

A vehicle supported implement for handling separate loads independently, and related methods of use, are presented. The implement is configured to move a load, such as a hay bale, rotating the load radially about an axis, from a first position at a first elevation to a second position at a second elevation. It includes a first frame member and a second frame member pivotally connected to the first frame member at a joint. The axis of rotation intersects the joint normal to the back side of the first frame member and the second frame member rotates radially about the axis of rotation between the first position and the second position. The implement includes an actuator, such as a hydraulic cylinder, connected to the frame members to control the rotation. The implement includes an attachment feature on the back side to secure it to a vehicle.
