Abstract: A load handling vehicle having an operator's position, a power operated load handler including a boom pivotally mounted at a front end of the vehicle and at least front and rear pairs of ground engaging wheels with one wheel of each pair on each side of the vehicle. At least one pair of wheels is power driven. The operator's position is offset to one side of the pivotal mount for the boom. The operator's position may include a seat which can be moved between a first position on a longitudinal center line of the vehicle and a second position to one side of the vehicle center line.

Abstract: A load handling vehicle (10) of the kind specified wherein the load carrying means comprises a boom (20) pivotally mounted to the structure forwardly (11) of the operator's position (17) and wherein cooling means (40) for the motor are disposed at one side of the vehicle.
