The lower end of the mast carries a ground engaging support structure, and hydraulic lifting means are interconnected between the mast and support structure arrangement and the lower section for lowering and raising the mast and support structure between a position wherein the lower section is supported on the ground engaging means and a position whereby the support structure is moved to a ground engaging position for subsequently lifting the lower section and its ground engaging means off the ground whereby the lower section is supported on the support structure. Drives are provided to rotate the most relative to the lower section and to shift a horizontally movable carriage at the top of the most horizontally and vertically.
