Abstract: A material handling implement is disclosed in this application. The material handling implement includes a body that defines an engine space at one end and a forward space at the opposite end with a pair of stanchions projecting upwardly at the rear of the body. The body consists of a rigid plate that is bent at spaced locations to define the bottom wall and side walls for the engine and forward spaces as well as outwardly directed flanges at the upper ends of the respective side walls. The body is reinforced adjacent the forward and rear ends and the reinforcement at the rear end defines a fuel tank. The body is further reinforced intermediate the forward and rear ends by walls that define compartments for housing chains.
