Abstract: Apparatus for storing a mobile forklift truck on top of a raised platform such as a loading dock or the floor of a transport truck, and to an improved forklift truck for use in such apparatus. The apparatus includes a pair of stirrups mounted on top of the raised platform to receive the fork tines of the forklift truck, so that when the tines are lowered far enough, the forklift truck is lifted up until its drive wheel is level with the top of the raised platform. The apparatus also includes a collapsible support arm movable between an out-of-the-way position and an operative position level with the platform top, where the support arm engages the drive wheel of the forklift truck. The improved mobile forklift truck of this invention has a "ready condition" in which it can be brought into position for self-storage on the raised platform, in which condition forwardly extending wheels can move through a restricted "collapsing zone" having specified boundaries into out-of-the-way storage positions.
