ABSTRACT:
A skid steer loader having a main frame supported on four wheels and including a compartment in which an engine, hydraulic drive components and other elements are contained. A cab is mounted above the compartment on the main frame with side walls extending upwardly to define an operator control area therebetween. Supported on the frame is a boom structure including a pair of arms and a mounting assembly. The engine is operatively associated with the wheels for propelling the loader. The engine is also operatively associated with the boom structure for raising and lowering the pair of arms. The wheels are controlled by a pair of hand actuated levers in the operator control area, while boom control is convertible between a foot actuated control lever in the operator control area and a hand operated element pivotally operative on one of the hand actuated levers. A bucket or other attachments mountable on the boom structure is also powered by hydraulics that are readily convertible between foot or hand operated control mechanisms.
