There is a powerful winch right behind the cab, and there is a large roller across the back of that beaver tail flatbed deck. You hook the winch cable to your skid (with the machinery on it) and it will drag the skid to the rear of the deck, then up to the roller, then on to the bed. If the skid is really heavy, it will pull the front wheels off the ground. Usually those bed also have a 5th. wheel recessed into the deck to pull a semi trailer too. Also, if you look along the sides of the bed you can see gin poles that you can make an A frame out of. Handy trucks!
