Abstract

A method and mounting by which the lift arms of a tractor vehicle having a material handling bucket may be converted to other uses by removing the bucket and mounting in its place an attachment, such as a backhoe. The attachment is lifted and transferred to a working position by the lift arms which also support the attachment. A latch locates and locks the lift arm and attachment in a fixed position in relation to the tractor.
