  • LEVELING SYSTEM FOR LIFT DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240400363
    Abstract: A chassis for a lift device includes a base, an arm, and a first actuator. The base has a first end and an opposing second end. The first end defines an arm interface and a pivot actuator interface. The arm includes a longitudinal portion pivotably coupled to the arm interface and a lateral portion extending from the longitudinal portion. The lateral portion defines a second pivot actuator interface. The lateral portion is configured to support a tractive element. The pivot actuator extends between the first pivot actuator interface and the second pivot actuator interface. At least a portion of a bottom surface of the lateral portion has a sloped profile.
