The hook assembly is moved between these two positions by the actuator. The actuator is provided with a fork having an upper tine that contacts the top surface of the actuator plate and a lower tine that contacts the bottom surface of the actuator plate. The actuator is pivotally mounted to the vehicle by a bracket and is provided with a latch for latching the actuator in a first or second position. |
