Skid Steer Folding Grab Bars

Getting on/off one's skid steer can be a daunting task for those with leg impairments and/or arm-strength limitations. One possible solution is a set of these Skid Steer Folding Grab Bars, which consists of a pull-down bar with grab handle and a permanently-affixed bar mounted side by side to the machine's both left and right forward frame. Providing the leverage to climb aboard, one hand grasps the pulled-down grab bar, while the other hand grasps the stationary bar. Once seated, the left- and right-side pull-down bars are returned to upright position so they're out of the way when the loader bucket is raised. For dismounting, the process is reversed. (Contact the source for specifics regarding construction.)
