A work machine extending in a fore-aft direction includes a frame, a ground-engaging mechanism, a boom assembly to the frame, and a traction assist apparatus. The ground-engaging mechanism is configured to support the frame on a surface. The traction assist apparatus is coupled to the boom assembly. The traction assist apparatus has an attachment point for securing a tether.

The user removes the pin, located by the pivot bolt, unwinds the cable from the spindle of the winch, lowering the game carrier to the ground. The user pulls the strap or cable up to 25′ to the game and places the strap or cable around the game. The user then cranks the winch by rotating the handle or pushes the button on the electric winch, and guides the game up and onto the game carrier. Rotating the handle it takes up the strap or cable. The user can unhook the strap or cable from around the game, and attach the hook to the d-ring located on the front of the game carrier and rotate the handle or push the button to pull the game carrier back to the original position and relocate the pin in the hole located by the pivot bolt. Your game is ready for transport.

Another implementation of the present disclosure is a refuse vehicle. The refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body coupled with the chassis, a tailgate, an electric lock, and a fully electric tailgate actuator assembly. The body assembly defines a refuse compartment. The tailgate is coupled with a rear of the body and is transitionable between a first position to limit access to the refuse compartment and a second position to allow access to the refuse compartment. The electric lock is operable between an engaged state and a disengaged state to limit movement of the tailgate out of the first position when the electric lock is in the engaged state. The fully electric tailgate actuator assembly is configured to transition the tailgate between the first position and the second position.
