An excavator 1 having a lifting device 2 for lifting a pallet comprises a boom 4 mounted on a chassis 3 and a dipper arm 5 pivotally coupled to a distal end of said boom 4 to which an implement, such as a bucket, may be attached, the lifting device 2 comprises a mast 12 mounted on the dipper arm 5 of the excavator in a vertical or substantially vertical orientation with a carriage 20 slideably mounted on the mast 12, the carriage 20 being provided with a pair of spaced tines 21, 22 for supporting a pallet and at least one ground engaging load bearing member such as wheel 28 is provided at a lower end of the mast 12. An adjustable length linkage 14 may extend between the lower end of the mast 12 and the chassis 3. The mast 12 may be releasably coupled at its lower end to a quick hitch coupler 6 on the dipper arm 5 and at its upper end to a pivot pin 18 between the boom 4 and dipper arm 5 using hooks 16.
