Abstract
An actuating arrangement (14) for a front end loader or the like is provided with a locking bar (52), an adjustable carrier (46) and an interlock (44). The interlock (44) is activated upon movement of the carrier (46) out of an operating position and prevents the locking bar (52) from being brought into a position in which the actuating members (40) can be activated. The interlock prevents unintended activation of the loader when the carrier (46) is in the non-operating position and prevents the carrier from being moved from the operating position unless the actuators (40) are blocked from movement.
