Abstract
An apparatus which includes a tilting jack of which the axis on which it is articulated to the tilting structure is in front of the axis on which it is articulated on the frame and in which the tilting structure and the frame are so adapted that the effect of actuating the tilting jack is to cause a lifting hook to tilt about a first transverse tilting axis between a position for starting or finishing tilting and a position for changing the axis, and about a second transverse tilting axis between the position for changing the axis and a position for picking up a load from, or setting down on, the ground.
