Abstract: A piste grooming apparatus for a motor vehicle, in particular a track-laying vehicle, includes a cutter support which can be adjusted relative to the motor vehicle about a plurality of axes and which has a cutting shaft arrangement that is arranged rotatably in an impact housing. A smoothing mechanism is arranged—as seen in the forward direction of travel of the motor vehicle—behind the cutting shaft arrangement and is held in an adjustable manner. The impact housing and the cutting shaft arrangement are held on the cutter support in a manner such that they can be adjusted about a pivot axis which—as seen in the forward direction of travel of the motor vehicle—lies behind an axis of rotation of the cutting shaft arrangement.

Abstract: A percussion instrument lift comprising two end-lifts connected by a support rod. Each end-lift comprises a frame, a lifting frame coupled to the frame, and a lift extending between the frame and the lifting frame. Two platforms are adjustably mounted to the lifting frame of the end-lift. The platforms can be transversely slid on the lifting frame so as to accommodate an instrument of varying widths. A fastener can secure the positioning of the platforms with respect to the lifting frame.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for material handling coupled to a vehicle to move material and an object. The material handling apparatus comprises a blade movably attached to the vehicle and configured to move the material and move relative to the vehicle. A pair of forks is coupled to the blade and configured to move from one position wherein the forks form a portion of the blade to a second position wherein the forks can selectively manipulate the object. The material handling apparatus can include actuators to move the blade and the forks. The apparatus can also be configured wherein the actuators are controlled from inside the vehicle.
