ABSTRACT:
Cable reels are loaded, unloaded, transferred or otherwise handled relative to the flatbed of a vehicle by a pivotally mounted lift assembly which includes a main rotary shaft having two or more extended lift arms rigidly attached in a generally U-shaped configuration. The main rotary shaft, when attached along one edge of the flat bed, is capable of pivoting through 180.degree. rotation by hydraulic rams or the like, and the lift arms include an arrangement for securing the cargo outwardly of the shaft with hydraulically actuated gripper finger arrangements. Arrangement of a plurality of lift assemblies in tandem so that the extremities of the lift arms are on intersecting arcs enables the cargo to be lifted from the ground surface onto the flatbed and transferred to different selected positions. Power winches appropriately positioned or peripheral engagement of cable reel containers allow rotary cargo for cable reel winding or unwinding.
