ABSTRACT:
The material handling machine has a chassis comprising a rigid longitudinal frame whose width is less than 25% of the overall width of the machine, excluding the wheels. A boom or a loading bucket is pivotally mounted on the chassis. Digging equipment is mounted at the rear of the chassis. A drive arrangement comprises a mechanically driven transmission kinematically connected to an engine. Shafts kinematically connect a power output mid-way along the drive arrangement to final drive units on the front and rear axles. The drive arrangement is mounted at one side of the longitudinal frame between the axles, and an operator's cab is mounted at the other side or above the longitudinal frame. The cab is movable between a forward position and a raised rear position.
