Abstract

An attachment for skid steer loaders and the like which combines a forklift mast (14) with width adjustable rolling stabilizers (16, 18). The ground engaging rolling stabilizer caster wheels (50) are positioned to each side of the lifted load. The castering wheels (50) bear a large fraction of the weight of the lifted load as well as stabilizing the load while it is in motion over varying terrain. The rolling stabilizer lift (10) dramatically increase the weight lifting capacity and the height to which loads can be lifted beyond that of the loader alone. The rolling stabilizer lift (10) includes an automatic attachment adapter (210) adapted for coupling attachments to and uncoupling attachments from loader lift arms (218) without the need for the operator to exit the equipment or employ a helper. The automatic attachment adapter (210) employs a compact, lightweight, high strength latching device (232) to make connection between the attachment plate of the loader (216) and mounting plate (12) of the rolling stabilizer lift (10). By making use of interlocking rotating clevises (236, 238) the latching device is self-centering, requiring only approximate alignment to operate. Additionally, the latching mechanism (232) is self cleaning of debris which may interfere with its operation.
