German term or phrase: Gabelträger mit Zinken, schwimmend
Leider habe ich nur wenig content: es geht um ein Musterfahrzeug für den Bergbau, auf das verschiedene Geräte mittels eines Adapters gesteckt werden können u.a. auch der Gabelträger mit Zinken, schwimmend (andere Dinge sind Bohrlafette, Vierfachschaufel, Arbeitskorb). Es ist also ein relativ großes Fahrzeug.
Da ich nur eine schlechte Vorstellung davon habe, wie ein solches Gerät aussehen soll, bin ich bis jetzt auf fork carrier with prongs gekommen, zu dem schwimmend habe ich leider keine Vorstellung. Hat jemand eine Idee? Vielen Dank
