Abstract: A portable apparatus for supporting, moving, lifting, lowering, and/or tilting a workload is formed by an expandable base frame, a mast, a lifting assembly, a tilting assembly, and a translation assembly. The portable apparatus can be translated generally along a surface to a workload on the translation assembly. The workload can be positioned so that at least a portion of the workload is supported by the lifting assembly. The lifting assembly can lift the workload generally along the mast to a desired elevated position. Further, the tilting assembly can tilt the mast, and thus the workload, so that the workload can be lifted through an overhead opening to an elevated installation location.

Abstract: A work load lifting and moving apparatus is formed by a wheel supported horizontal main frame in turn supporting a mast assembly having a vertically reciprocal lifting frame gripping and lifting the work load by a hoist supported by the mast assembly. Other lifting apparatus supported by the main frame tilts the vertical axis of the work load in a forward direction.
