Abstract
Abstract This provides a scrap-baling press truck having two press plates which are mounted on shafts arranged in parallel to the axles of the truck. The press plates fold over a pressing trough in which the scrap material is placed. A further feature of the invention provides an extension platform adjacent the base of the pressing trough. The extension platform can be hydraulically operated by a lever arm system on the lower portion of the truck platform. The scrap-baling press truck is especially adapted for baling scrap automobiles.
